You don't hang around do you... :shock:

What does it look like affixed to the helmet?


A disgrace to biking...

That's not how I always ride, merely my first go at editing, so I wanted to make the footage interesting. No one wants to see 8 minutes of me sitting at 70 on the motorway!

I'll upload a photo of the mount shortly

Great vid steve, can I ask what made you decide on the go-pro, over for example the Drift HD? I'm thinking of getting a cam, and tending a bit towards the DriftHD for the little screen and the remote... :shrug:

Cheers gassoon.

I didn't do much research into the drift. It was really just a case that the gopro is SO popular that I thought I couldn't go wrong. I also liked the fact there were so many mounts available, and also it's fully waterproof to 60m (not that ill ever do that).

I now just need to do some more filming, and get the hang of editing a bit more. I watched it last night and realise that some of the clips are black and white - I didn't mean to do that!

I'm only editing using windows live movie maker but it seemed to do the job. Just a learning curve for me at the moment...
