Knight Bandit - 2002

My very first Bandit video ever.  I was home between military deployments, and had my brother follow me in my car with the video camera mounted on a small tripod on the passenger seat.  The video was shot in Philadelphia and Montgomery County, PA.

Bandits at Deal’s Gap 2003

In October 2003, I took my very first trip to Deal’s Gap to ride the infamous Dragon, a twisty 11-mile section of US Highway 129, on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee.  I was joined by BlueMax and DJGoody, also on Bandits, and we captured some nice on-board video.  I eventually made a nice DVD out of the video and photos.  Below are three clips from that DVD, captured by DJGoody and myself.

I also made a 45-minute DVD of our online community’s get-together near Asheville, North Carolina in the spring of 2004.

Carolina Motorsports Park - Track Day

In May of 2005, I participated in my first-ever track day at Carolina Motorsports Park in South Carolina.  Two of us shared a borrowed Ninja250 (thanks again, Hugh!) and beat the hell out of it all day long.  I’m in the black/gray leather jacket, PurplePeopleEater is in the white one-piece suit, and FHaze is working the camera.
