Whenever New Jerseyens meet, they usually ask "What exit ?" - means exit off two of the hallmark highways of NJ - the Turnpike and Garden State Parkway.  They are notorious for traffic, taxes and passing through some industrial areas.

My thumper does not like those highways either.  So I am always looking for new roads - so I get to see places called - NewJerseyNeverSeena.  Here is my other attempt to bring a fresh look at NJ.

Thanks!, that was a nice ride.

Very nice video, with good edditing. What camera do you use, Singh, and which software?

 Excellent Job singh ! Not a tank farm or smoke stack to be seen !  :D  And I'm sure you'll agree, a small example of the many beautiful roads and scenery in our state. From High Point in the north to Cape May in the south, our state is loaded with some great Roads. From the twisty's through the mountains and farm lands, to riding along the ocean front, it is a great State. I'm at #138 BTW  ;D

Thanks for the ride in my home state. When I lived in Englewood I would ride to the northwest part of the state. Lots of lakes twisties and mountains. Beautiful state.

@Maturin:

Danke.

The video was recorded on a simple Samsung Digital Camera SL620 operated in Video mode.  The camera is so small and easy to operate.  It can be mounted on the handle bar - but there is too much vibration on our thumper that shakes camera too much.

My computer has Windows 7 operating system that comes with a free software to make movies.  It is called Windows Live Movie Maker by Microsoft.  It is the simplest movie making software.  Like other simple things, (like our RE  ;)), it only does very basic functions but enough to make a video with some effects.  Do you have a movie making software, which one ?

Here is a link to Microsoft Live Movie Maker and Photo Gallery softwares.  I believe they are free to download.  Mine was part of the package when I had bought the computer.

@Ice, @r80rt, @Bob, @GHG and @Blueberry:

Thanks very much for your appreciation of the video.  I am glad to hear that I am not the only one who thinks there are lots of beautiful places to ride in NJ or just visit the state. Hey, if need be one can easily visit NY or PA !  People say they are nice  ;).

Thanks for the video.  For one one the most densely populated states it is usually a  relatively short ride to countryside.  Still can find dirt roads in the northern section of the state as well as explore the Pine Barrons in the south.  Not to mention all those small historic towns along the Delaware river.
