If this is a real concern than you either have the wrong camera, or shouldn't be shooting professionally. Or both.

When we used to rent the cabin up on Cherahola our landlord would tell us stories about Killboy and his stupidty. IIRC also mentioned meth in a few of the stories lol.

You're going to have to show your work on that one because I come up with a very different number. If you assume 24 hours of light to shoot: 30,000 shots / 24 hours / 60 min/hr / 60 sec/min = .35 shots a second or a shot every 3 seconds average. With burst modes and a lot of traffic, possible I think.

The internet is full of bad motorcycle content, from hipsters with DSLRs going crazy with blur cuts, to the likes of Wes Siler from Hell for Leather talking out of his rear end. So it's such a pleasant surprise to find something actually good. There is some Australian magazine that reviews gadgets but for some strange reason they also do bikes. They do a fantastic job with the bikes, their production values are as good as TV and the reviewer dude really knows what he's talking about. Check em out S1000RR Review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxneAvv2D4A Ducati 1198 Review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXwFacJdMf8 Multistrada Review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyZ64Ef-yaY They've got a few more on the channel and I really hope they continue to do a lot more.

I saw this weird Sportster (?) thing at my favorite pizzeria the other night:  It honestly has me confounded. Straight pipes, chromed out, but also debadged with a cafe-style windshield.  Also (not pictured) I saw a rider on a sportbike last night dressed in full leathers and helmet. I was so shocked to see ATGATT in CT that I almost crashed myself! I'm assuming it was one of you, as the standard motorcycle uniform in CT is workboots, jeans, Harley shirt, and sunglasses (sometimes a Safety Bandanna/Do-Rag).

Well that kind of cheapens it somehow. In my head I imagined the bike being ridden by a big bearded schizo that would mod his bike one way, only to have a change of heart the next day and half-change it up again. Kind of like the motorcycle equivalent of Two-Face.

Not really the case here, but a lot of these folks are attempting (read: failing) to replicate the look of the late 70s XLCR factory cafe. Even Peter Egan still loves it, and he's not exactly a champion of things HD. http://www.caimag.com/wordpress/2010/01/18/harley-xlcr-cafe-racer-too-soon-or-too-late-for-harley/ Edit: Apparently Dzus and I have some sort of synchronicity thing happening...

Found this on ADV rider: "Ouch. First drop in Indonesia was actually a toss. This 4 year old bull tossed the bike and me. According to the American elephant expert I had dinner with, I'm lucky to be alive I got a tusk scrape along the thigh, but got away OK. It took a while to get the bike back off the elephant. Little poo poo wanted to play games with it."

Tha . . . that's a hell of a thing! Just when I think that "I would never ride a Harley," I see something like this, and my ignorance quickly shifts to ravenous lust. Anywho content: Dr. Steve Brule brings us his report on mumbercycles (warning: some fake  at the end).

nofucksgiven.jpg Picture is pretty much badass/awesome in every way. edit: On the beers thing, you hold them on the tank with your arms. I've rode home with 12 packs and 18 packs that way. I'm a drunk but I didn't drink while riding, just picked it up on the way home. Even had a cop ask me one time "I just want to see how you're going to carry those on that(my bike)"  edit:  gently caress you nsaP. Beaten.

If it's Florida he's got a lot of straight, flat riding. Frankly I find the bottles to be a reckless choice.
