Helmet Camera

[cuttercoasty]

Anyone else ride with a video camera?

I got the idea for buying one when I was nearly ran over by a convoy of impatient Bahraini drivers taking a short cut on the bicycle path that runs along one of the causeways. I have the right of way, but it doesn't stop them.

I figured I should probably buy one for two reasons...
one, to show how bad the traffic is, as it records to an ST card and can plug straight into the Mac to upload the video.

two, the police can find out who ran over me. Never the less, it is going to be interesting.

I picked up a Contour HD 1080p camera and a handle bar mount for pretty cheap. I am going to take it on its maiden voyage tomorrow.
It is a short ride, but it will show the craziness I deal with.

Anyone else do this stuff too???

I am sure it would be fun to check out videos of recent fun rides.
