Got a lttle video camera for handlebar mount for B-day today. Came from Sam's Club. Will mount up today and going for ride with Blue Knights tommorow from Providence to Fallmouth, MA to rolling thunder wall (Vietnam traveling wall monument) so I'll let ya'll know how it works and post some vid if I figure out how to do it LOL.

Looking for to the video. Can you take photos of how it's mounted? One of these days I'd like to do the same.

Thanks.

Did you get that for your B-day? Forum says it's your B-day today

Yep, 3 years shy of 5-0 now. Going out for a rie up to NH in a little bit (gotta get my 2nd cup of coffee in me to get moving LOL. Will give a report on how this thing works then and try to figure out how to load onto the laptop and then figure out how to post vid on here. This little vid camera is made mostly for like mountain bikes or whatever and has a simple handlebar mount but also has straps and such for latching onto bicycle helmets or whatever you want to latch it onto and is supposed to be pretty waterproof. Will see if grainy or if ibration makes it unwatchable though if supposed to be for bicycles on trails it should be ok for motorcycles on street.

Hope this works. Only place camera could be mounted has it viewing through windshield but seems to work pretty good.

Look a video from me from my last trip in Peloponisos in Greece.
This is a small part on Aroania mountain ( Helmos).
This part is near Patra.
