Nice video. What are you using to record?

[RVFR]

Thanks, I could have used some sound effects, but I'm new at this. and it's really hard to place the mic where it won't pick up wind noise yet hear the bike. I use a Sony Handy cam DCR-HC96 with a Sony 580 res. bullet cam.

If you are new, I'm whatever is before new.
But I would like to do some videos too.
Do you mind posting a pic on how you set up the cam on the bike?
I have a DCR-HC36 and not sure if I can use that plus the bullet cam to
be able to record.

A little help here... thanks.

Here's the You tube version of Wind River Rd. very lousy IMO. I like Vimeo better, but they have a load limit per week thing.

[howl]

The ride from the fish hatchery to the end of Curly Creek is one of my favorites, Reg will defiantly see that stretch on his trip to the evergreen state, he doesn't know it yet but I was planning on making 3 PNW & 2 California video's with him, the PNW video's will include Wind River, Hwy 53 & the last 10 miles of Mt. Baker...

With the DCR-HC96, you have a couple of different options, your Sony will handle a bullet cam like RVFR's since it has an input and you will have the versatility to mount it anywhere from your helmet to your rear foot pegs.


Another option is to go with the cheaper $49.00 Vacuum Mount like this one.

With a vacuum Mount, you can only mount it on the tank or the cowl, this is the option I went with since my camcorder didn't have a input to plug in a bullet cam. Here's a video made while mounted on a tank...

A third option is the GoPro which Puma Cat uses, it doesn't require a camcorder and will mount almost anywhere, here's a video made with the Go Pro...

sweet video you guys really have a lot of trees. again excellent video and beautiful scenery.

[RVFR]

Here Ya go on what I have and the set up. I use a Joe Rocket tank bag where I also cut up two layers of foam to keep things put. I use suction cups to mount the Bullet cam just about any where on the bike. Helmet too. Yes it stays put. You'll see the Bullet cam here the way I had it when I made the Curly and Wind river Video. Next Video I need to make is to go back to Wind River and do a rear view angle. Hey Rick wanta come along? maybe a good time would be when Reg is here? I have marks on the helmet to keep it lined up so the view looks right. You'll see the remote switch where I use Velcro to keep it put on top of the triple tree where I can keep an eye on it. That switch makes all the difference in the world it has it where just the touch of the button turns it on, starts stops recording, and shuts things down. Yes, helps big time if you have the camera that has the remote pug in's. hope this helps explain.







Here is last years ride on Rowena Loop where I have the Bullet cam on thy helmet to give you an idea what that looks like.
