Tour de France road gap teaser

Freeride Entertainment has a video teaser for the next video “Ride the Lightning”. The teaser shows a bit of the Tour de France road gap jump. No unicycles, but it’s still some good bike porn.

Links to the video:

Re: Tour de France road gap teaser

any chance of finding a link that doesn’t require quicktime?

Nope, the format of the preview they released is .mov
Just download quicktime…it don’t cost anything

Nope. The jump was over a group of “slow” riders. Here is a news article about the jump.
Watson Gaps the Tour de France

And here is a still photo of the jump

I like how Watson has his name painted on the road right below the jump. :slight_smile:

:frowning:

Just for you I converted it from QuickTime to AVI. It requires the DivX 5.0.5 codec to play.

You can download DivX from Free DivX Video Software - Play and convert video. Play DivX files.
The link for the free version with no addware is titled
“Download the free DivX Codec/DivX Player bundle”

The video is uploaded to my gallery

I’ll leave it there for a couple days and then delete it.

There are some obvious video compression artifacts in the video. The artifacts are there from the QuickTime compression. Recompressing the video with DivX only made the artifacts worse. Consequently the QuickTime version is better quality. But that’s what happens when you compress a previously compressed video.

I was wondering when I would get to see the clip of that. I heard about it a month ago. looks like it’s pretty sweet indeed.
