Eldorado (loop) being used as nature and Mandello intended

Just a brief sample from the Ranger Lake Road, northern Ontario:

Yes, I know the speedo and tach are a bit erratic. They suggested I was travelling at 120 mph and 2000 rpm for most of this trip.

Do you have a view from the second camera or is that just an empty case?

I have about 50 separate bits of video - much of it rubbish - from two cameras. I'll get around to splicing the best bits together eventually.

Here's the view from the other camera:

Fantastic, Nick!

I admire a man who is not afraid of a little dirt.

I thought I recognised that name. Ranger lake Road is the same road that goes through Searchmount north of the Soo. I remember that road from the early 70's (like 71 and 72) when I had my V700. I used to drive up that way in an old VW beetle, hunting chickens with an old Baikal 16 gauge single shot.
I have some oil paintings of that area done by one of my old camp cooks years ago. Nice, Nick.

Great video, thanks for posting. It's pretty obvious to me that the loop may be holding you back...possibly time to look at some riding alternatives.....
