    Yea :) I was so happy Patrick let us use his drawing. And it's thanks to you, your tumblr is where I first saw it and thought it was perfect.

    For Thousands of Miles is a great title and has emotional resonance, esp. with the artwork. Congrats.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Chuck :) Thanks so much! I think it's gonna take some time to grow on people - I'm really glad you said you think it has an emotional resonance.

    For Thousands Of Miles.....hmm. It will have to grow on me. i'm so attached to Pedal (even though it was a working title) that it feels weird calling it a different name. I dont hate it, its just different.

    The site looks great though and I cant wait to follow the development as you push into the next phase. And I dig the artwork too.

    Good for you, keep on going. We're all behind you.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Yea :) I know it's very different from "pedal", and I've had a fair number of people say I should call the film 'Pedal', but a) there's already a biking film called that :P and b) I never wanted the title of the film to be so "biker centric"...

    I'm glad people aren't flat out hating it though ;) yet...

    Patrick's drawing *is* great, I'm so glad he let us use it. Thanks about the site design - and for the support!

    I have to say i totally agree with your instinct. I love "pedal," but I also put off catching up with your project for months, because I thought i was going to be a biker documentary or something. Then i finally caught an episode a while back and was shocked to see it was something much more intimate and personal.

    the new title transcends that "guy on a bike" thing, and raises your curiosity.

    it's just more lyrical.

    ok, gonna stop gushing.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Yea, it's been hard getting people into pedal because it sounds like they have to be a big bike rider to enjoy the episodes or the film - and that always was frustrating for Amanda and I. Thanks again Ayz! It means a lot coming from you.
  • Ayz Waraich 1 year ago
    don't worry mike -- the title is aces.

    i really like the new title. project pedal wasn't very sexy. for thousands of miles sounds like A Film. like chuck said, it has resonance. it's a keeper. and nice job redesigning the splash page.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Steve :) Thank you. Project Pedal was *not* very sexy, I agree... I've been waiting a long time to call it something else.

    And thanks on the splash page - I might have a question or two about something I couldn't figure out for that :P but that can wait... Amanda is against my idea anyways.

    Nice title. It makes sense. I'm with the others that it will take a little to get used to it. And that the splash page is great. And that the Moberg drawing is boss. Nothing new here, just another submitting his approval.

    p.s. I'm wondering why you chose to have 64 Days in a Mike Ambs album instead of its own channel? It seems with the format of the channel main page, you could set it up so it was distinct from any one vimeo user.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Ben :) Thanks - yea, hopefully it grows on people. I'm actually pretty happy though with the percentage of likes and not-sures :P I thought more people might be like "wtf".

    Patrick *is* boss.


    And! That's a great idea with the channel - much better than the album, I'm gonna make that now. Thanks for the tip.
