Great Fun

I got out for a ride on Sunday morning, I took the 360° camera with me and shot about 40 minutes of the ride in one consecutive piece. I was having issues with the camera pole staying up but other than that it was good fun. I was originally going to go into Canberra and ride around the lake and over the bridges that go over Lake Burley Griffin, but at the last moment I decided to head out to the Captains Flat radar in Tallaganda State Forest. I thought that there may be a little bit of dirt just getting up to the radar but there was more than that. Thankfully most of the dirt roads were in fairly good condition and only a little damp from the dew over night. If it had rained in the last day or two it would have been probably impossible for me to make it with the tyres that I currently have on the bike.
The actual road up the radar was a fire trail that wasn't in very good condition and I really enjoyed challenging myself and getting out of my comfort zone riding up it. I'm sure a lot of other riders wouldn't consider it a hard ride but it was the roughest trail that I have been on so far and there were a couple of very large slippery puddles to ride through too. Once I got to the radar I stopped for maybe five minutes and put the 360° camera on it's pole on the back of the bike and rode home.
I had so much fun, riding back was easier than riding there as my confidence had increased and I also knew that I wasn't going to come around a corner and find a really slippery patch or a tree across the road. It was great just to be out in the sun riding the bike without a care in the world.
I spent Sunday evening looking through the footage and creating some still images for Instagram and I also played around with creating a short video of the ride just to see if I remembered all the tricks I learnt when I was playing around with video footage all those months ago

Hopefully it won't be too long before I do this again
