MS150 – Timelapse – Part 1

Timelapse Test
I was able to do a pretty good battery test yesterday of some great clouds floating by. The battery made it about 4.25 hours on a full charge. I used the CHDK soft firmware on a Canon Powershot SD700. This is most likely going to be my setup for the bike tour to Erie.
I’ll post something up here once I get an actual on bike test time-lapse. It should be interesting.
Should I go for the Century?
Day 1 Century Map with Elevation Map
Clearly there is an error in one section of the elevation chart above, but this will give you the idea.
The Action
I went out to train with other DICK’s employees at North Park the past two Saturdays. The first Saturday was a chilly 12 miles. Last Saturday was a much more commanding 26miles! I was pretty spent at the end of the ride though.
So as I promised here is the link for the map of the second days ride. It starts at Allegheny College and finishes in Conneaut, OH. The map I’ve created isn’t perfect. Especially since the second day is supposed to be 70 miles and I can’t seem to make it over 60. I’ll update it as I get better directions.
I also got my bike serviced by a very good bike tech at the Robinson store. So I’m looking forward to hitting the road this weekend and see if I can’t make it further than last week.
