A Tractor Rally featuring the Yorkshire Tractor Group (England).

I shot it today - 29th May (I put the wrong date in the video title). I was pretty difficult to shoot, as I was always chasing the action and couldn't really spend time to setup the shots.
The video is around 14 mins long, so feel free to skip through it. The video contains music. Uploaded as 720p.

I've asked before how to embed links into this site, but know one replied, so here's direct link to the video.

Thanks for looking.

If you upload the video to YouTube or Vimeo, you can then post the link here for direct viewing, by clicking on the chain icon in the New Thread and copying the link as plain text into the top one of the two boxes.  Then CONFIRM, and you're done.

Thanks for the info.
I don't use YouTube or Vimeo. I guess I'm out of luck then.

Interesting footage Mark.    Looks like the rally attendees took quite the tour through the countryside.  

Forgot to ask, is that an annual event or is it held more often?

Thank you.
I'm not sure how many miles they covered. But the route they covered was long.
I only filmed a small part of it.

It was held last year, but I didn't film it.
I think it's an annual event. They might also visit other parts of the region too at different times of the Summer.

You're very welcome Mark.    No doubt the video would have been much, much longer if you'd covered the entire route.

At least it is a great opportunity for them to get together and enjoy a little camaraderie.  

Hope you have a great week.

It makes life easier, though.

I would have had to fill my car with drone batteries and memory cards to film it all

Yep, everyone needs a hobby.
From using flying cameras to riding around the countryside in rusting vehicles, causing traffic jams
And you too.

That's true.
For YT I think I'd want to upload in 4K, but that would take me all night to upload those file sizes.
The 720p was nearly 1GB.

Is your bandwidth pretty low?

Blériot53 Posted at 5-30 03:37
Is your bandwidth pretty low?

Yes, very slow.
I'm not sure of the figures though. So I usually speed all my videos up to reduce the total file size.
Every MB saved helps!

    No doubt that would have been required.

Maybe time to change your service provider

Thanks.  I've got a lot planned, now I just need to put the plan into action.

It's a bit extreme to change providers, just so I can post videos & photos on this site
All the providers use the same telephone exchange, which needs bringing first into the 20th Century, then the 21st.

Where do you live? Brigadoon?  

Blériot53 Posted at 5-30 05:04
Where do you live? Brigadoon?

Yes, at The Paper Street Soap Company. Just of Letsbe Avenue.

Are you too young to remember the story of Brigadoon, the village that only appeared out of the mists once every hundred years?  

MS Posted at 5-30 05:12

Ah yes, Letsbe Avenue - where all the coppers live

Nice video. May not have been the fastest rally on Earth, but looks like a fun ride anyway and the views are great!

Also, funny to notice there was a Green Day song covered on the video's music - pretty apt considering the surroundings shown on video.

That latter song is new to me, but seems to fit the description just as well

It was a popular musical love story back when I was a lad

You can also post a link here to the MP4 and it will embed into the forum.

I haven't turned mine off, it's just that 99% of the time I don't receive any notifications.
For your message I did.
