Carl Buchanan - Mountain Bike Racer


Welcome to Hollywood

Today's agenda included the filming of a commercial for Europa Cycle & Ski that will air locally during the month of July. It entailed G-Ted, Kerkove, and myself doing what we enjoy doing, riding bicycles, while the camera guy got it all on film to be edited later. It should start airing on Monday July 3rd (that's my b-day) on channels such as OLN, Discovery, and a some other popular channels. I feel that we were able to get some really cool stuff that should make for a highly entertaining commercial. I was the mountain bike guy for the commercial so I volunteered to do some "climbing repeats" on a local trail and lost count of how many times I had to do it to get the "perfect shot". Those of you in the know may recognize it. Multiple takes made for a good warmup for the road filming later on although I will not give the details on that part just yet, but it is good.

G-Ted dropping Kerkove like a bad habit. Who knew?

Group road ride is tonight and should be good intensity for me since this week seems to be lacking a bit although I am unsure as to why. I will attempt to get some pictures before the hurt train leaves the station.

Tomorrow is yard work day. Mow the lawn, bring in some dirt to fill a hole...big hole, and other such homeowner stuff. Will need to get a ride in sometime too. :) Technorati Tags:
