    That was a cool ride. I would totally get the handlebars stuck between two trees and eject over the front of the bike lol! Wow 7 inches of water is crazy and sorry to hear about your septic.

    The funny thing about the camera angles in there is like, I KNOW you’re looking for traffic both ways when you come to a street, but the camera doesn’t move so I get nervous even though I know realistically you’re looking all around haha.

    Making me want to invest in a bike! Sorry to hear about the septic stuff! I assume you have one of those water alarms? I have similar issues in my basement but because of issues with sump pump so the water alarm really comes in handy.

      No I don’t have an alarm. Might need to get one.
