Canal Ponds Ride Video

Have been going through GoPro videos from last year and doing some editing and posting to YouTube.  It's been kind of a slow process because my five year old MacBook takes over two hours to render out a five minute high-definition video, and it completely choked on a 10 minute try.

The ride we took though the Canal Ponds business park had to be broken down into four parts.  We did the ride on a Friday evening in August of 2014 so there was very little vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Here is the MapMyRide GPS track of that part of the ride.


The canal path crosses from the north side of the canal to the south side at Long Pond Road.  If you go under the Long Pond bridge, turn left and go up to the road, you have two choices.  Another left takes you across the bridge and back onto the canal path.  A right turn takes you into the Canal Ponds business park.

Please consider watching the videos full-screen (by clicking the box in lower right corner of each one.)  Also, by clicking on the gear icon you can change the video to HD for a better viewing experience.

Part 1 takes us through the Summit FCU drive-thru and around the loop at the bottom of the map.


The bench we stopped at is almost exactly five miles from home and is a frequent stopping point on rides to the east.  Here is a picture of me making a deposit at Summit in 2012.



Part 2 crosses the pond, goes left and around the loop at the top of the map.


Part 3 goes out on the leg to northeast and starts back.


Part 4 comes back along the southeast side of the pond, across the road and back out toward Long Pond Road.

                             

Hope you enjoyed the videos.  I'll try to get some more edited and posted to YouTube.  You can see other videos on my YouTube channel by clicking on the star at the end of the videos; and by clicking the Subscribe button on the channel page you will get email notices of new videos.  

Thanks for watching and Keep Moving.
