Aurora Cycling's July 1 ride - Krog Street Tunnel
Around Atlanta, the Krog Street Tunnel is well-known to cyclists and graffiti artists. For graffiti artists, there are strict rules about whether your work can stay or not. If it's good, it can stay. If it isn't better than what there before, you get painted over.
For cyclists, it's one of the best routes south from Inman Park and Virginia-Highland. The Aurora Cycling group took this route today on the way back home. The above video shows the group approaching, entering and then riding through the tunnel. Somebody goes "whoop" every time we ride through this tunnel.
Earlier that day we were down by the airport along Grant Road. In the video below, you can hear a plane coming in for a landing. We're on an uphill and still smiling big.
At a rest stop, we found a couple of stray cats. Although they won a lot of sympathy votes with their cuteness, neither of them rode home with any of us. This is the more skittish of the two peeking out from under a car.

That looks like a neat tunnel.
I'm downloading the video, but you should consider uploading them to YouTube or Google Video or something so people can stream them.
Posting the videos on another server does make a lot of sense. Thanks, I'm glad you suggested that.
Last week I learned that my bandwidth can be thoroughly eaten up by just a couple people downloading videos simultaneously. At least I learned how to compress my video in the meanwhile.
It's surprising how easy it is to upload to those video services, and then embed the video in your blog. And then they are the ones who have to provide the bandwidth, to boot!
Yes!! Man, that's awesome.
