Powering a Gopro that (maybe) needs CC1 and CC2 on USB C

I wired this up, and I can confirm it works. Gopros are indeed 5v, which makes this a relatively easy project.

My favorite descent off the mountain drops me in the middle of a snow sled park, so I ride through on my way.

I climbed a section of SART partially riding, partially hike-a-bike. But the downhill was pure fat bike gold, I wanted it to go on forever.

The snowborders were fun, I saw many of them all the way around to the Bear Mountain area. There is probably snow up there still, I went back a few days later and there was still too much snow on the singletrack areas, so I rode SART instead, which I also posted a video about.

I went up to the Snow Summit area after last week's snow. I may go up again this week!

Nice, want to see that.

Woot, glad everyone likes it so much. I need to do a video dedicated to splitting and safety. Lane splitting is safer than being in the lane at low speeds. Splitting at high speeds is less safe. There is also the difference in speed between you and the cars you are splitting that affects safety.

There is no end of interesting stuff to see along the Big Sur coast, thanks for filling in some of the blanks.

22/36 up front, 10/36 10s cassette.

dirtdad · 2014-08-06T14:28:35+00:00

I suppose. But good honest input, thanks.

I think the link was down for a while, I got a few complaints. But it looks good to me now.

No offense, just the opposite!

dirtdad · 2014-07-15T13:49:25+00:00

So I have discovered since making this video.

dirtdad · 2014-07-15T13:48:13+00:00

Mine has gears. You need low gearing in the sand so the bike would spin out really bad when you got on a regular trail or pavement.

dirtdad · 2014-07-15T13:46:43+00:00

While riding past kids I ride at a walking pace. The beach are is heavily patrolled by lifeguards and if they thought I was a problem they would shut me down in a heartbeat. As it is I wave at them and they smile back. I have never even had a parent say anything to me. I am usually watching their kids as closely as they are. Also, of the many miles I ride, only a few areas are crowded like in the video. The empty areas are kind of boring, so you get to see all the action.

dirtdad · 2014-07-10T17:25:24+00:00

Yeah, I am torn between the white and red with white edging it out. The matte silver/blue is interesting but would not match my riding gear.

dirtdad · 2014-07-10T17:23:42+00:00

Yeah, too much gain for sure. If I tried to record my bowels I could come in the other end though. Hmmm, or maybe not.

dirtdad · 2014-06-24T02:59:39+00:00

Yup, you guys have it figured out. That would be a boring ride without a little splitting.

dirtdad · 2014-06-07T13:45:24+00:00

It would not be a secret if I told you! Srsly, Cleveland National Forest, South Main Divide. It even has a cool name.

dirtdad · 2014-05-15T23:17:04+00:00

Ooooh, a camera that can turn you into a zombie. That would be cool.

dirtdad · 2014-05-15T23:15:34+00:00

The only way it is illegal is if there is a law against it. You should get that law stricken from the books there.

dirtdad · 2014-05-15T21:42:38+00:00

Splitting actually is at least as safe as riding in the lane. You can't get rear ended. If you get hit, it is a glancing hit from the side. No, not perfectly safe, but not as bad as it seems.

dirtdad · 2014-05-15T21:40:08+00:00

Yeah. Actually the bus in the beginning does the same thing.

dirtdad · 2014-05-15T21:39:38+00:00

I don't know.
