BHS Bike Fun

Posted on February 1, 2011 by dimsumandsiomai

I just realized that a 60fps camera is not enough for super slow motion type of videos like those found in Discovery’s Time Warp. After looping around BHS with the team, I hopped off and took out my cameras and started shooting. It was a shame that I didn’t get as much angles and shots as I wanted to because I couldn’t leave my bike alone on the sidewalk. I really need a glide cam for my 5dm2. I will make life much more easier.

I let one of my teammates wear the GoPro. I let it shoot at 60fps and the output was nothing but spectacular. As I’ve said, 60fps isn’t enough to make super slow motion videos but it will do. I found this neat plug in for Final Cut Pro that would convert my 60fps video into 1000fps. Maybe I’ll try that in my next video. Enjoy!

GoPro Bike Test

I recently acquired a GoPro HD cam and I am loving it. It will be a great compliment to my 5dm2. I love how you can virtually mount it anywhere.

Bike Time with the GoPro from dimsumandsiomai on Vimeo.

Mounted it under my aerobars and on the left side of my rear tire. Looked ok. Expoure on the shots mounted under the aerobar could use a little work though.

Had a lot of fun editing but I had to export the raw files to MOV first before I could finally get them into FCP.

I need to make some DIY mountings so I can put the cam anywhere.

Went by Bikezilla the other day to get myself a pair of two strap bike shoes. I was fortunate enough to see a couple and with my size as well!

UP Law Dean’s Cup Triathlon in Photos

Posted on August 3, 2010 by dimsumandsiomai

Walking up to transition area to set up and get body marked. As always, feelings of hurling my guts out were present. I was a good thing Tricia was there to calm my nerves.

Yoda and I at the finish line just before the race. Yoda is the Endure Mascot.

With the team and our patented Triangle Formation. Ellen, Pio, Rj, Me, and Tiff. I was glad they were there.

Me and my ugleh swim form. Bent knees and all.

Coming out of the pool for the first time. I look like a sea monster. I wish it was more than just looks and that I also swam like one. :( Getting out of the pool was the hardest. Had to do that a total of three times.

It was quite a run from the pool to transition area. I was lucky enough to bring a pair good fitting slippers.

I was out of T1 in a couple of minutes. I made sure I had my shades on so that I’ll look like a PRO. Oh yeah. That my friends is how you properly mount up to a bicycle.

I look happy. I finished the 20k bike at around 51 minutes. I am still slow. Thanks to the humps though, I have a reason for being slow.

Oh yeah. My second Triathlon is complete and here’s to hoping that I do more.

Thank you Tricia for coming! I love you! With out your support, I wouldn’t have finished the race.
