Default Bama Dave's Newbie Run Video

The third time is the charm I guess. The video took three times to upload this damn thing. First time on the dragon with a 18 wheeler there too. Check it out people.

I forget to put the towel under the secret compartment to stop the bouncing and shaking. With it raining I did it quickly and I'm sorry for the poor video. Not up to Bama Dave standards. Thanks anyway Lenny. Later BD

must have been all that bourbon the night before because i can sort of remember that but not really


here are all the ones i have on video:

first was on my way home from wtdx. if that f150 hadnt been holding me up, i never would have made it home. the next 2 are from last september and luckily the first one was being escorted by a biker, and the 2nd had a miata flagging people down in front of him
