Re: My $6 camera mount

Thanks Water Warrior.

I've discovered one thing, though. You feel like you're going a lot faster when you're riding the bike than it looks like on the video! The video seems so slow, even though I was averaging about 10 MPH over the speed limit on that road.

Re: My $6 camera mount

Looks pretty good to me. Video quality is at least as good as most YouTube.

It kind of serves like one of those golf videos where they analyze your swing. I notice you are more consistently "by the book" when you go to the right with some of the left turns initiated from the left side. (I'm not consistent myself...)

Or maybe just the camera is mounted on the left side?

You don't have your peripheral vision adding to the sense of speed, it really makes video seem 'slower', and not looking into a turn, but having video follow the bike into the turn adds to that. Now you have to come up with a helmet cam mount.

Yea, I noticed that. It might be since there was little traffic on the road to make me wary of the left (#1?) lane. I do try to stay in the #1 lane when I can, though.
