Kiwi A310

Postby exocet » Wed Jun 01, 2011 11:28 am

Finally! A beautiful weekday day morning, no passenger, and a reason to head north out of Wellington in the A310. Between here and there, albeit with a slight deviation, stands the Paekakariki Hill. For some reason, the A310 compelled me to deviate, rather than take the easier route via SH1...

Being a weekday, there was little traffic to contend with. Weekends see the lycra clad set, the big bikes and all sorts of other obstacles that can ruin one's day!

So I hung a camera upside down off the windscreen and went over the hill. Off course, I was forced to take the same road on the way back, problem is I must've not pressed the button at the right time, so you've just got the north bound leg.

(I must fix the camera mount for next time, as the sucker lever rattles a bit, and try and sort out some better sound capture
