  • In this video, I am riding my GT Aggressor Pro around Pyramid Peak in Phoenix Arizona and recording on my GoPro Hero 11 mounted on my chest. This is recorded and uploaded in 4k 60fps Hyperview.
    This is my first attempt at making and editing a video entirely with the GoPro Quik App on my phone. I learned a lot about the Quik App with this video. The edits and cuts might be a bit excessive, but it was a learning exercise, and I had plenty of practice. I made many mistakes and had to redo the video several times. I am behind schedule and late uploading this video because of the many mistakes I made. I would like to start using the GoPro Quik App more often to speed up the process of editing and posting videos in the future. As a new content creator with no experience except for this channel, I am excited to learn new tricks. I hope to one day be knowledgeable enough to provide a quality production of video entertainment.
    I almost ran over a rattlesnake, and I was almost bitten by a #rattlesnake

      Everything was out. I saw a jackrabbit and a coyote, but the footage was terrible.

    I have the same GT. Modified of course. That snake was startled and ready to strike. Nice scenery. Thanks for the post.

      I saw the snake slither away, but I had no idea until I saw the video that the snake had quickly recoiled into a striking position before I had passed. I can't believe how fast it moved.

      @@ArizonaJake When they want to, they can move like lightning. Happy that you are OK.

    Had the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago in Tucson. It was close enough that I lifted up my left leg as I went by.😮

      It's almost enough to make me want to ride with someone else, just in case. The snakes are everywhere!

      I never heard them called that, but I know why. Good one.

      Its a cowboy term for the western diamondback Its the striped tail, as you figured. Very Arizona-western New Mexico name.

    That was close!
    Where are these trails located? We rented in Goodyear this last winter. Road mostly Estrella Park and FINS. So many rocks. This trail looks more sooted for a couple of old guys. No snake problems in Jan to March.😊

      We also rode McDowell one day, very nice. Going back to Goodyear next winter. Live in Green Bay, WI.

      @michaelringelstetter5121 sounds like you ride more places in AZ than me. Lol it's not hard to because I'm a creature of habit and hardly break my routine. I'm not very adventurous and I don't like to leave the house, therefore I ride the same parks over and over. In my next life, I'm going to travel.
