Teo, I am using a GoPro Hero3+ Black camera and the original video was filmed at 1080p at 30 frames per second. YouTube "Processed" the HELL out of it. I didn't use the ultra-wide image that the GoPro is capable of, because it gets kinda fish-eye. It looked real good before YouTube got ahold of it.
There was a point where I stopped to talk to a friend and everybody else rode ahead. I put the afterburner on catching up... then sped up that portion of the video 2X up to where I caught up with them.
The music is David Arkenstone. His music can best be described as New Age... kinda etherial. That particular song is called Papillon (On the Wings of the Butterfly) from his In the Wake of the Wind album. (I'm saving his best song for an upcoming video.)

Nah, there are numerous settings in the camera for Wide Angle... they call it SuperView... to more normal views. Here is a few functions available for the GoPro that I have...
In addition to regular video, it can do various settings for:

I enjoyed making it. I sped up the video (2x) when I was riding fast to catch up with the pack. I had stopped to talk to an old friend, then hauled buggy to catch up.
BobW is in the white and black Hawaiian shirt, Hallmarkgrad is in the orange shirt and cap, Jake is in the blue shirt, and my wife Christine is also with us. Christine is the only one who isn't active on this forum.
All forum members are invited when we do these rides. We would love to have y'all join us.
Hallmarkgrad is the only serious bike rider in the group. He is the oldest and rides his age (in miles) on his birthday... woah!
