[MEL] Anna Meares and Ryan Bayley @ DISC Mon. 8th Oct

it was excellent!

My god the guy can punch out some speed, ~70-75kms/hr on 84". ‘Spectacular action’ as that cricket commy might say. Andy was there with his cam taking some good shots so keep an eye on his site. Nath got within 3ft of Anna, nearly had o constrain him hahaha
Good crowd too.

I’d like to get some of that footage Blakey :slight_smile:

did any of you get to ride?

Yeah we got to do quite a few laps but not allowed to ride with the stars though. At one point we were all asked to go out on the track and spread out cause they were filming, was pretty cool.
At the end the weather guy, Anna and Ryan jumped on some tiny kids bikes and went for a spin, the weather guy fell on his arse, hilarious!!!

It sure was an awesome morning and my god they are faaaaaaaaast!!

I got quite a few photo’s so will put them up tonight once I get home. I made sure I got one of myself with both Anna and Ryan! I regretted no taking my DSLR, but ahh well.

Nath - you should have gotten one of us to get photo’s of you with Anna! :smiley:

The boys got out on the track and did quite a few laps and it was good to see quite a few Brunswick jersey’s out there.

Yeah it was ace, pity i left to early to see the presenter stack it.

Oh well i got to enjoy all the free offerings from Brunetti’s including chocolate, cakes, sweets and coffee

Assuming the box did record and didn’t chuck a spaz, any suggestions on painless conversion from .rec (similar to MPEG-2, different headers) to xvid or whatever would be appreciated. I’ll give VLC a bash at transcoding to start.

If on a mac, “ffmpegX” works a treat and is free, Also a full version of Quicktime will do the job justice.

.

Should we be worried about you Nath?? :wink: :smiley:

Nah, I’m OK now - I was just a touch overstimulated. Or maybe it was all the free short blacks? Hehe AWESOME morning.

Over stimulated?? I see :wink: hehehe Yeah… blame the short blacks :smiley:

Short blacks?
