Showtime Down Under!

by Stew Shaw on August 10, 2009

OK folks it’s time to lift the pace and the action!

First up, I’m sorry this post is biased a little towards the petrol heads among us, male or female. Sure most people in the West drive cars, and some of us ride motor bikes either regularly or infrequently. I’m in the latter category. And I follow the MotoGP series on TV.

Professional motocross riders exist to thrill crowds. A few hours ago I videoed two of these guys strutting their stuff in front of the night-time crowd at the Ekka – a nickname for the much-loved Royal Brisbane Show in Queensland, Australia. Anyways, check it out, if for no other reason than to see what results 1000s of hours of practise, passion and dedication can produce.

I removed the native soundtrack since it contained original music and a professional commentary, both of which might have contravened YouTube’s terms of service. So the current music comes from YouTube’s own approved library. The unedited footage was shot with my trusty little Sony Webbie HD. Sorry about the handshaking wobbles and the frequent poor focus – most shot at nearly 20X digital zoom.

Put on your headphones, wind the volume up to near max and… Enjoy!
Motocross Freestyle Tricks at the Ekka

Or would you rather see some fireworks? It’s another of my latest YouTube videos from the 2009 Brisbane Ekka.

Can’t let you go with out an unashamedly personal plug. What do MX freestyle tricks and a professional fireworks show have in common with a Remarkable Online Entrepreneur? Well they all involve:

    * Gravity-defying Action
    * Incredible Firepower
    * Passionate Entertainment
