Going to do this ride again today at 3pm again. If anyone wants to join me they’re more than welcome to. The pace will be pretty relaxed since its a bit cold outside (mid-50’s at the lake). Also, I’m going to try the GoPro for the first time. Not sure how I’m going to properly aim this thing since theres no screen or aiming device :dunno > [@Opie and Anthony](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/opie-and-anthony/25815/428): > > I’m going to take a ride up to Sacandaga Lake, leaving at about 3pm, its a 3 hour round trip back to downtown albany (shorter if you live farther north obviously).
