33 miles in 2.5 minutes (Chilly Hilly 2010)

My obsession with time-lapse film continues.

This morning, thousands of cyclists from around the United States came to ride the 33 mile loop around Bainbridge Island known as the Chilly Hilly.  I got a few hours of filming in before church, then grabbed Dylan after church for a few more hours of filming while Jill rested.

My favorite shot is featured in the video thumbnail: hundreds of cyclists on Baker Hill Road at once, weaving past each other in accelerated time.  The scale of the cyclists is insect-like when viewing all of Baker Hill at once.
