Here is a very short video my wife and I just made the past few days while learning to work with a GoPro camera.
This video shows off a local mountain bicycle trail that we have been riding for a little over 25 years. I've been trying to get regular exercise for the past year and having a fun trail to ride on has been a key factor in my keeping at it. The trail is in a beautiful section of the Apalachicola National Forest. The forest managers keep the forest healthy by prescribing periodic burning so as to encourage the native plants to thrive while minimizing the danger of wild fires. This year the wiregrass and the wildflowers are making an excellent display of what the pine woods around here can look like in their natural state.

The distribution video codecs don't handle all the fast movement very well. The HD web stream doesn't look any where near as nice as the original "source" footage but it's the best we have in 2013. :-)
It was fun to make this video and I hope it conveys the fun we have when we are out riding our bikes in the forest.
My wife is much faster than I am... it was nice of her to let me ride at the front. :-)
best regards,
