Thanks man I got myself a little timer off Amazon, can set it anywhere from 1 second to 99 hours. Set it up on a tripod, frame the shot, set the timer, and try to get the timing right.
@LoBomber: dude I know. I work outdoors and it's been threatening rain all day like it could come at any moment. Also driving over YV right now, once I get home I'm gettin on the bike.
