This video is a little longer than I would normally do, but is 2017 in review. It does not, by a long-shot, show all my activity in 2017, but covers much of my rides around the North Island. Also included here is from footage from Sea Trials of a new Fuller’s Ferry, destined for Auckland.
I have removed some music because of copyright issues and defaulted to: Brontosaurus, Topher Mohr and Alex Elena Bar Crawl, JR Tundra ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1h164X1q7U
First week complete at my new job. I am traveling form Wanganui NZ to Palmerston North NZ each day. This is 150kms round trip per day or 750kms per week. The nzbeeker stickers have arrived from Serbia, thank you Бранислав Дачевић, they look great.

I have just learned something... most of my resent videos on the big ride I did around the East Cape of New Zealand has VERY BAD Audio... which did my head in because before I left, I got a new helmet and mic... and expected awesome quality audio... But in watching the video on my helmet unboxing and setup... I have realised that I mounted the double ended mic right behind chin bar on the new helmet. The video shows that the chin bar has an air vent in the front... Now I have come to the realisation that I have mounted the double ended microphone right behind an air vent... so as the speed gets up, so will the air flow through the vent right onto the microphone... ok... I have moved it to a new location so should be ok now...

The final in this series… We are riding as a pack from Palmerston North to Pahiatua, managing our rode position and looking at the vanishing point in turns ahead. The Instructor is dropping through the pack, observing each of us and giving instruction and feedback over the audio link we are all carrying. Unfortunately, this where my battery power runs out, before we head back and are awarded out meddles and certificates with our Gold Certified Rider status.
Note: the Certificate in the thumb nail is an artists impression for the sake of a thumb nail… the one awarded looks a little different.
