Very cool!! Aldo, I think you spoil us rotten! :-) I hope that tripod was fairly light. I'd hate to imagine how much trouble it would be to try to balance it while also shifting for the movie.

Since you are inclined to spoil us, may I make a couple of requests??

1. can you get a friend to shoot a movie from along side you? I'm curious about how much of a contortionist you have to be to reach back there when shifting.

2. is there an easy way to download the movies from the web? This is the sort of thing that deserves to be archived (and prove to my friends that I'm not the only bike geek around) :-)
