This is my channel. There are many like it, but this one is mine. I used to post videos on another channel, but was not very good at it so I stopped. Then one day I was sitting there, minding my own business not bothering anyone, and I got a notification from someone called "new subscriber." Strange name, I though, so I clicked the notification. It took me to a page that was in, I think, Chinese. I do not speak Chinese, but can generally recognize the writing. Puzzled, I checked my channel details and found that I had 7 subscribers. So I figured with a following like that I should probably post a video. I don't do much interesting, but here it is. My channel has returned from the void.
Experiment 1
This is the first in a series of experimental videos. One goal is to explore various video editing techniques and develop an arsenal of such techniques for future endeavors. There is no narration in this one, but there is extra haiku, which is part of the experiment.
The channel recently welcomed its tenth subscriber, so welcome. The intention remains the same though, as long as anyone is watching I'll keep making videos as long as I'm able.
I have collected footage for the next round of experiments, which includes narration but not a bicycle. We'll see about how much haiku those get.

Autumn 2024, Full Tour
มุมมอง 26วันที่ผ่านมา
This is the full circuit for Fall of 2024. This is a narrated episode. There seem to be some who like the narration and some who like the ambient noise of a bike ride. So to be consistent with my policy of making videos as long as anyone at all is watching, and not being able to please everyone every time if more than one is watching, Ill narrate some and not others depending on my whim. When i...
Autumn 2024 part 2
มุมมอง 3214 วันที่ผ่านมา
This is the second part of the first narrated season. The next drop will be a full-tour with narration. No one has complained about the narration, but one viewer said he found it relaxing to have the ambient noise in the background, so maybe I'll do some with and some without. My policy remains: as long as someone is watching I'll keep posting. May as well, it isn't that hard. Here is where to ...
Autumn 2024 First Episode
มุมมอง 3614 วันที่ผ่านมา
By popular demand this video includes narration. If you like the narration, let me know in the comments. If not, let me know in the comments. Same trail as the Summer series, only a bit cooler and more leaves blowing around. There were some technical problems and we lost a section of the video. That problem should be resolved with a new handlebar mount. The evidence supporting my conjecture tha...
Late Summer Bike Ride 3
มุมมอง 3421 วันที่ผ่านมา
This is the third in a series of three videos from a bike ride on 5 September, 2024. It's the same trail as the rest, but the people and animals encountered differ. The weather is roughly the same, though it is getting cooler. Next up is the long-awaited narrated series. That was collected some days ago and I'm hurrying to get these done so I can make room for the narrated footage. Winter is co...
Late summer bike ride, part 2
มุมมอง 8021 วันที่ผ่านมา
This one is shorter than the others. Same trail though, but a bit later in the season. It is surprising but it seems there is a bit of an audience. As long as one of you remain I'll keep posting. Please comment if you want anything changed. Not saying I'll do it, but will certainly think about it.
Late Summer Bike Ride
มุมมอง 5321 วันที่ผ่านมา
Call it Second Summer. This video is from a ride on September 5, 2024. It is the same trail as the earlier videos, but a different day with different encounters. There will be two more, then a full tour from yet another day. Then we get to the autumn season, and by request, the introduction of narration. I collected the raw footage today and should have something posted by next week, roughly th...
Summer 2024, Full Tour
มุมมอง 2228 วันที่ผ่านมา
This is a long one. It is the same trail as the shorter ones posted earlier, but on a different day and going the opposite way around the loop going north through East Grand Forks and the south through Grand Forks. It's here because Spiffing Brit said to make long videos sometimes.
Summer Bike Ride 2024, part 3
มุมมอง 41หลายเดือนก่อน
In this episode we cross the Red River of the North into Minnesota, or Puffinsota as some call it. Why do some call it that? You need to get inside the mind of the puffin, which you can do in this video: th-cam.com/video/oGdVSvsiaOk/w-d-xo.html. Anyway, this clip is not from the same day as the first two. The camera had slipped as a result of going over the many irregularities in the path and w...
Bike ride in the summer, second clip
มุมมอง 48หลายเดือนก่อน
You could call this part 2, but it really doesn't matter the order because there is no plot. There is also no narration apart from possible exchanging of pleasantries with passersby and other travelers. There are two more clips of roughly this length in the works and a full-ride video to cap off the summer. Then we'll get into autumn. Don't expect any winter videos; it is possible to ride bikes...
Bike Ride, Summer 2024
มุมมอง 9หลายเดือนก่อน
Just a quiet late summer bike ride in the upper Midwest. There is no narration, all audio is ambient. There may be some exchange of pleasantries with passersby or acknowledgement of significant events. This post is in response to a notification that said my channel had a new subscriber, which was surprising given my channel's inactivity for a number of years. There are more to come and as long ...
Whoops! I misspelled "element" in one of the haiku screens. Sorry about that.
