quick question - if he was solo and no other person accompanied him then how was he able to film himself riding along the road (like in a full view of him riding)? did he place the shooting camera on a tripod or something then go back and ride towards it? please explain.

[dirttrackproductions]

@anuragsharma08 Yes that is exactly how it was done. Leave the camera, ride into the shot and come back to fetch the camera.
