spring arrived, Ben shredded, spring left

 The weather was record breaking last week and riders everywhere got their sessions in. Good thing, cuz it's damn cold again. I made my way to Orleans to pretty much watch everyone else ride. I haven't ridden in months and with a new bike, I was extra terrible. But this gives me a good excuse to break out the camera. And Ben didn't disappoint. I also got a new iMac that has been working very well. Jorden hooked me up with the new Final Cut too, so my edits should have a slight improvement in quality and looks overall. I really want to up the quality this year and focus on looks as opposed to quantity. I really need to get a traditional filming camera, because this DSLR filming feels beaten to death already, AND I have a dead pixel already. Balls. Idiocy never fails. I am speaking of higher quality edits, but you'll notice I forgot my filming light for the new edit. It was kinda key considering it was night and... well, dark. Good times. Check back really soon for the edit!

Ben has a dedicated Norco-mobile completely brakeless to practice barspins and other Edwin like tricks. Must be nice to haves two bikes!
