September 2010 Club adventure from Calgary

That's a big 10-4 there Rubber Duck!

That's one of my all-time favourite songs from back in the day - late 70's, early 80's (cough)... never get tired of it.

Also... glad to see you took the "flip-flop" term and turned that into fashionable off-road footwear enabling you to truly get the McLean mud between your toes! Of course, you will now have to wear them on every run!

Can't wait to get out there again!
cheers!

I'm disappointed that work didn't end up taking me out to Alberta to meet you guys. Looks like fun.

Got my computer back finally and wanted to get a couple of videos up from our adventure in September. Go easy on me tho... am relatively new to video editing and was in a hurry to get them done so everyone can see how much fun it was. Tried to get as many of the vans and people in as possible while catching some of the highlights but was using the basic editing software that cam with the computer. Will be spending more time editing with Adobe Premiere as I have lots of Delica footage from other excursions as well as this one. Just need more time.

The rougher, steeper sections in the afternoon were all elective. Those who didn't feel comfortable (yet) weren't forced to try the difficult stuff and nobody was left behind. We go as fast as the slowest person and provide insight and support to those less comfortable. White Mule was less than comfortable in the beginning but after we talked him thru a couple of sections, I think his confidence built up over the day and he (and the rest of us) would love to do it again.

I hope this will get more members excited about coming out and putting your skills and Delica to the test or just learn some offroad skills while there is support close at hand. Enjoy...

Okay... how'd you do THAT RichD?... oh... um... is that what the "youtube" button is for? Haven't tried that...

[RichD]

You have to modify the embed code for it to work.

You have to modify the embed code for it to work.

Not sure what you need to modify, but it works fine if you use the YouTube button and just drop in the number after "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="
Don't use the embedding code from YouTube. You only need the number from the URL.

[RichD]

Your method doesn't work in my browser mate.

This isn't really the right thread for it, but what does work is if you replace the '?' with '&' in the embed URL.

If you read the BB code embed syntax for YouTube option, you will see that embed code is the supported method.
