sunny spring drive around west yorkshire

Description - Mk II

I lost the original type I typed out so here it goes again...

One spring morning after a nightshift, and a little later in the morning I was driving. I attached the phone to the dash in the usual manner, started filming and tried to take the scenic route home...

I sort of knew at the crowded T-junction, that I should have turned left, but I went straight forward. It was fun, I found some incredible views and a nice 60mph single carriageway down a steep(ish) hill.

I started around Tony, ended up in Birstall, with cleckheaton, Wyke(?), and Bradford in between.

Music?
Artist: Lanark
Track: The Stone that the Builder Rejected
off the Hot Chip - DJ Kicks mix album (very very very good - go out and buy it, or buy it and download it).

This was filmed on the 23 May 2008, on a Nokia N93i blu-tak(tm)'d to my car's dash.

Nice song, perfect quality, and decent scenery makes the video worthwhile. Thanks for posting!

Facinating and great music. Took me a while to get my bearings then saw the Dunn centre.

The total lack of strip malls and bill boards is absolutely refreshing. I'd love to do away with both in this country, but, alas, that would be "bad for business". :( It does freak me out when you make a right hand turn. :o Thanks for the look at a different reality.

i impressed, i do them vids all the time with a camcorder on my dash board, but i like the idea of speeding the film up.

I only film upload them if i catch something interesting, but speeding it up and putting music to it, makes it a much better film.

I remember doing similar years ago with a mate of mine using a crappy old camcorder :) Great fun.

Hey, you also drove through Birkenshaw, hub of the Universe, and you never mentioned it :) - Actually right past my house!
