Riding in and around Muenster, Texas

[zbillster]

Because a boy with an action camera, Tascam recorder and free time is a dangerous thing.

Trying a cheap eBay mount on the engine guard. The vibrations at assorted RPMs can either be severe ... or trippy.

Remember ... blurry = art!

Next time when I ride in Muenster (Germany), I'll make a video, too, and attach it here if ok

Please do, bitter.

Muenster, Texas was founded by several German-Catholic immigrants, so a lot of old world heritage still in place. The shop where I parked at the end of the Road to Muenster video even has a glockenspiel clock that performs several times a day.

Deutschland is my favorite place to drive in Europe ... everyone is very polite, uses their turn signals, and those delicious Mullermilch drinks and prepackaged sandwiches at petrol stations.

This is still my favorite view from a Go Pro by early forum member VFRPaul.. mounted on left side of helmet. Shows bike , gauges, interaction of throttle and clutch, the road, scenery. Don't know that you can do much better than this view imo

If you’re one time back in Germany we could ride together. I live 60 mls away from Münster

I’ll be in Houston TX at the end of October. How far are you away from there?

Thanks for your videos. I like to see motorbikes riding in the US

I'm not crazy about having gear stuck to my helmet ... just a personal preference. I may do the brake fluid/clutch fluid reservoir lid sticky mount next.

Kinda like the low angle and watching the wheel working up and down, but engine transmits a lot of vibration and heat down there.



But really not sure how much video I'll be shooting in the future ... unless I'm riding somewhere really, really pretty like the Rockies.

I am 456 km the annoying, interstate highway way ...



... or 581 km the country scenic route fun way ...



I keep meaning to ride the CB1100 down to the area west of Houston/east of Austin/north of San Antonio soon (we call that the "Hill Country") which is better for fun driving. Lots of German-American towns there, like Luckenbach (hence the song) and Fredericksburg. But currently down south es ist höllisch heiß!
