Ultimate shoulder rides

checkmateguy · 2013-04-12 23:00:39

My friend and I were out today (Friday 12 April 2013) shoulder-riding in the New Forest, Hampshire, England - and we made a video! I'm hoping that I can upload it to the forum without having to upload it to YouTube first to get a click-on URL. All I can say is that our video is worth seeing. I was the rider and it felt great.

I'm sure it's worth watching !!! I hope you can upload it soon !!

checkmateguy · 2013-04-13 19:47:41

Yes. Just needs the last few frames of the video to be trimmed using the video editor. Hope to upload it tomorrow (Sunday).

No luck uploading last Friday's video to USRs from my laptop. After using the 'browse' to select the video I got a message saying 'Internet explorer cannot display the webpage.' Using the FTP, the message displayed says 'FTP server requires a user name and password.' Log on annonymous doesn't work either. And I don't want to use YouTube. Anyway, if anyone wants to see this video I can send it individually as an attachment to any member's email.

Thanks Checkmateguy ! But it says that the video is private ....

checkmateguy · 2013-04-17 18:37:48

Thanks, equidum. I've just amended the video settings to 'public view.' So have another go.

walter_berneburg · 2013-04-17 21:56:21

It still says: 'This video is private.'

equidum · 2013-04-18 09:27:14

I confirm Walter's statement ... Still private

HKguy · 2013-04-18 15:33:19

Thanks checkmateguy, waiting for your video

checkmateguy · 2013-04-18 19:32:29

I've just made this video 'public access' again! It seems as though it would be easier to break into Fort Knox and steal America's gold reserves than get a video to work using sproutvideo's service. I'll be on anti-high blood pressure tablets at this rate!!!

So try the above link - again, please.

equidum · 2013-04-19 09:41:22

Yeaaaaaahhhhhhh !!! It works ! You're all set now to break into Fort Knox, grab as many gold bars as your valiant steed can carry, and make off on his shoulders, galluping non stop straight away to Nottingham Forest, to join Robin Hood and dispatch some of your golden booty to the poor !!!

Thank you very much for this excellent clip, Checkmate ! I don't say thanks to your mount, of course, you might take me for a fool if I spoke to a horse, mule or donkey, wouldnt you ?,

Im just a beast of burden,Equidum! But I do prefer vin rouge to oats and water any day!!

frenk5080 · 2013-04-19 23:45:36

Always nice to see a fellow rider having a good time on his trusted steed.
Thanks for uploading and thanks also to Ali2121!
Hopefully, Shouldertaxi and I can meet you guys somewhere in the future. Would be awesome to ride with you into the sunset. *cowboy mode off*

shouldertaxi · 2013-04-20 16:00:06

Great to see ridings simular with my own! Like to carry Frank in the forrest like you. Think about to meet all 4 together!! Change riders and horses. Maybe some competitions!

That's what I am as well, Ali, which doesn't prevent me either from drinking vin rouge every day ... If only to try and forget that I am not that a good beast of burden ... .... And that I am a poor masterless donkey ...
I hope you will have the opportunity to meet with Shouldertaxi and Franck, and it would be best if you also had a cameraman to immortalize the scene !!!

And .... Of course you will upload it to SR

ali2121 · 2013-04-20 22:40:45

Im beginning to feel tired already!Where's that bottle of wine?

shouldertaxi · 2013-04-21 13:48:16

Hi Ali,
You must be related to the horse, "Stewball"!! Do you remember the Hollies hit from 1967?
I like to take a glass of wine to, so maybe we are related to? 2 good ponys
