Videos for Biker Chicks

I’ve started a video channel just for women who ride!
A cool new video service called Magnify.net lets me search the web (YouTube, Google, Yahoo, etc.) for bike-related videos, filtering out the “bikini bike wash” -style videos and leaving just neat stuff of interest to women who ride, and then put them all on a “Biker Chick News Video” channel.
I have about 30-some videos loaded in at present… the first group I loaded in was woman-oriented… the second group was Sturgis-oriented… and I can’t seem to find a way to mix them up a bit. They’re displayed in newest-first order, so all the Sturgis videos are on the front page. (Oh, and my cool little photo slideshow from Sturgis 2006 is first in line!)
Now here’s the thing: I’d love to add lots more videos to the “Biker Chick News” channel. If you have a ride video from a bike-mounted camera, or have made a cool photo-slideshow-with-music, or have any bike-related video you’d like to share, please upload it to YouTube and then send me a link so I can add it to the channel. I’ll be searching a couple times a week for new videos, too, so hopefully new stuff will be added frequently.
I just wanted to let you know that I love the video idea. I have looked at a few of them and your’s is great. Vicki
Hey thanks, Vicki!! The Magnify service is really neat, it automatically searches for new videos based on my favorite search words, then lets me hand-pick the ones I want to keep. I really like it. I hope to have some videos of the Estrogen Ride coming in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned. THANKS for checking it out! ~ Janet
Hi, great idea! I have 2 videos that I’ve done so far for you to peek at.
One is a slide show from bike week in Laconia NH : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dop0AIYfjg
The other is my first attempt at a video blog post dealing with the rejet (and spark plug change) of my bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdDrzUnm4K0
Liz these are both great! I will add them to the channel… folks can also follow the links here. THANKS!! ~ Janet
