I assembled a 2 minute video of the event, and it can be viewed via your browser at:

or alternatively you should be able to save a copy of the 9MB file from:

Normally I have a nice bulletcam setup that I use, but unfortunately I didn't have time to get my act together so what you'll see is some of the footage is really shakey as it's from my hand-held digital camera. It's REALLY hard to keep the camera steady while you're riding one handed on track bars and are trying to catch up to a tandem! ;-)

If there's enough request I can re-encode the video to a format more friendly for viewing on Macs.

Cheers, Tam Pham Huntington Beach, CA - USA
