I was watching both at the same time, you can really see a difference between the two. Great footage on vid! 

Give yourself a thumbs up !

Nice Repo! The trail looks amazing when it's in full bloom and you can see the corridor unfolding in front of you. I'm really siked that we were able to get crews of people out doing this. It makes a huge difference. Good times.

Cool, you got the crew working on the before vid, and even got our yellow bob trailer (donated by Bucks County Bicycle Company, yeah it's a plug for them  ;)) full of tools!!!   ;D

Awesome!

I'm glad you guys liked the videos. I need to work out a better setup for the mic, though. A lot of that rumbling was the mic rubbing on the Camelbak. I have a bunch of clips to upload to Flickr and then maybe edit together in a longer YouTube version (Flickr maxes out at 1 minute in length, so it's better for short clips). As I add them, they'll show up here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/repoman/sets/72157604485039632/) (newest first).

Was that you I saw with the helmet cam this morning?

Probably, I was out between 9:45 and 1. Were you solo or with a group? I saw two people seem take note of the camera as I was coming towards them.

Again, great work on the maintenance. It made a world of difference.

Yea I believe my fiance and I saw you on the trail yesterday morning.  She took note of your camera as you rode past us. 

Pretty cool footage man.
