Fwd: [nebc] Thanks NEBC road tips for music video

check out this music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTfB6EcJMp8

It was made by a member of my bike club, NEBC.
I like the song, but my favorite thing was seeing all the familiar Boston landmarks:

• the little road next to the lake (at 10 seconds) is on a "shortcut" Jay and I take while biking (Mill St & Lincoln St in Lexington)
• Charles River
• Salt & Pepper bridge - when I worked in Boston I bike commuted over that bridge every day
• Fanueil Hall
• On my weekend rides out past Hanscom, we often return by taking the Mill St / Lincoln St longcut to avoid traffic and go past that lake.

I just want to say a BIG BIG thanks to all the NEBC club members that recommended a nice quiet road
for the bicycle music video that I did

KATRIN the singer really appreciated the road (She plays a mean acoustic guitar by the way)

I checked out all the leads from the club and ended up on Lincoln Street, near the water - it looks so great in the video
 (It's in Lexington right - hell, I didn't even know where I was).

Sad to be so close to home and lost.  I can't tell you how helpful all those road leads were

It was perfect, and we only saw about 10 cars in 3 hours on a Sunday morning!   Able to get all the close ups and "action" shots with no problems

Thanks to all those that wrote me an e-mail and I appreciated the time spent

Bares, Tetrault, Preneta, McMaster, Evans, Turer, Rowell, Chiu, Martin, Laupheimer, Shan Smith, Greenberg

You'll see some of the bike stuff about 30 seconds into the video and it continues until the end on and off
(I know, I know,  she doesn't have a helmet and she is wearing cowboy boots, but this is entertainment so try and pretend your in LA
where there are no rules)

In this clip you can see Lincoln Street and the water.  Heck, it looks like Kentucky!

I shoot all my music videos alone and without a crew, so I do it all, a tough thing to do.  I had a driver for some of the bike shots and that's it

By the way, the 3 speed in this music video, I found it in the trash, it was in almost perfect condition
