GMR, Mt Baldy Lodge via Crystal Lake Ride

Did a really nice ride yesterday, GMR, Mt Baldy Lodge via Crystal Lake Ride.
GMR = Glendora Mountain Road.
We stopped by the lake and then the overlook then on to a really nice lunch surrounded by some really great guys. I had a blast and felt some real love. My buddy had a small mishap when he dropped his bike - he was more embarrassed than any thing else - I know the feeling - I did worse in January... In front of a few hundred people. At least he only did it if front of us and we scrambled to help him get it set right. I'm thinking if that's the worst thing that happens we're doing great.
I'm sure he'll post the clip if he wants to.
After lunch was a short ride home - I didn't realize that or I'd have stayed longer in the mountains - I'll know for next time.
Here's some pics to enjoy....

Yeah, that's not a bad idea. Some really spectacular views - to be in a hurry is a waste. Watched it again last night. The video is great but it really can't capture the grandure of being there... It is fun to watch though!!
I guess the Go-Pro's aren't as good as I once thought - LT's video was lost and Jerry's video seems really far away...
Great Job!! You Da Man!! :icon_clap:

Yea i'm not a GoPro fan. Bought one and hated it sold it and got a Drift HD Stealth. Bought another Stealth so i had one for video and one for photos or could use both for video one forward and one mounted on the rear of the bike. Now i have the Drift Ghost mounted on the helmet. Great camera very user friendly and you don't need to buy a ton of crap like you need to with the GoPros

I do like your set up. And after seeing the 2 brands and the final productions I'd have to go with the one you use. When/IF I ever go that route I'd probably go with the one you use.
