That's how I started :biggrin . lol I then bought a cheap helmet cam, found I liked it and then bought a GoPro :thumbup:

We go out as a small group on the french greenlanes every other weekend, sometimes with a Drift helmet cam attached. We now have a great record of the long chemins (tracks) we have found and how the condition of them changes post rainfall etc.

With wide-angle set right, the results are usually good.

Long gone mate. I dropped it and it broke. It was one of these. I'll see if I can find any old footage.

I lost my SD gopro too. I left it in a back pack in a lay by next to a burger van and someone nicked it :x
