Nice one, Smeggons! :D

Bonus to see us for a few brief seconds, didn't expect to as we'd run as TEC most of the weekend! :)

[Speedy Claire]

Many many thanks Smeggy.... music and editing were brilliant. Did I read that you`ve still got some footage to put on vid?

[Seggons]

Thanks Claire and yes there's still plenty of footage to sort through so there will be another one sometime. :D

In the Biblical sense, Binky ? :confused::confused:

I see it almost like a tribute to the poor Donkey from NW5 and the horrors that Orose and Badger put it through. ;)

[orose]

I was talked into it, I swear

[Binky]

Who by? The donkey?

[orose]

Do you think Badger was going to complain?

[xXBADGERXx]

Hey .... come on guys , you know the rules about these things , "What happens in the Donkey , STAYS in the Donkey"


<-------------- Lifts up the tail , points and yells "Get back in there Orose"

I'm just being nosy but is this the main vid from the rideout? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gflsoUhXcJQ&feature=channel_page

It sounds like it - just want to say that is absolutely brilliantly edited, one of the best I've seen!

Where is the camera mounted - is it on the indicator? I'd love to get a camera that mounts in that position but I don't know how it mounts there (and it might not mount well on my bike cos the indicators are in the mirrors).

[Binky]

Yep, that's the main one. Seggons has his camera mounted on a little bracket that attatches somewhere around the radiator cover mount. He'll be along to no doubt tell me i've got it completely wrong though.

He may be a while though as he's busy editing up the Willingham Woods rideout for us. :mrgreen:

[Seggons]

Thanks alot Muffles and yes like Binky said that is the main one. Binky is also right about how it's mounted. All it is, is 3 holes in a bit of metal and screwed onto the rad.

Pictures of it are here (excuse the bike being crashed).

I wish I had a camera setup, is it pretty expensive to get a decent camera and recording equipment?

Did you not film 'the crash'?

[Binky]

He'd have just got a sea of grass and lots of brown blurs, (mainly mud, but also Seggons cacking himself)

Think they, cost around 300 sterling i believe.

Sorry for the derails but can the police demand the footage from a camera if they spot it when they pull you over?

[orose]

You'd struggle to get anything useful out of one mounted where Seggons has his (mine is the same, except I'm using the sucker on helmet mount) - you struggle to get a bearing on how far things are away from the camera.

All in, I paid about 160 for mine, but I've got a less flexible setup (essentially limited to 2 hours per video before an SD card change) and dangling wires.

Cheers - I will have to think about where it can be mounted as neither of mine have an exposed part like that I could bolt it on to :(

BUT I will have the same problem as you :D - so you have it mounted to your helmet? Not to the bike?

[orose]

Yeah, I have - however, I'm much lazier about my editing, so I've got no example footage or pics. Should probably take advantage of being bikeless and pull my finger out, but I think Pt6 has the best one - we're still waiting for the catherine wheel part 2, as far as I can work out, and that was at the tail-end of the summer last year :p

[Dave20046]

I'll post a video of my ingenious camera mounts for under a quid tonight if I get time.

Bubble gum is not an option, lol :p

[Luckypants]

I think it will be a good idea to take the camera discussion to a thread of it's own guys... Ask a photo section mod to move / merge the discussion so far to your new thread.

the last time I went to Wales we visited Goodrich castle on the way...
I was still in primary school and my geography was not good back in 1977...
So where is Goodrich castle then... humm. I'll google that one.:wink:..
Good greif, its not even in Walse..all these years I thought it was in Wales... Well every day is a school day. as you learn something new.

Hey Richie & LP
You didn't mean Gwrych Castle ( nr Abergele ) where the Dragon Rally was in 1963 ?
I know your post was 3 weeks ago, but I have as much difficulty keeping up on rideouts!

[Quiff Wichard]

I passed Goodrich castle on friday-- south wales down on the way to Monmouth

[punyXpress]

I passed Goodrich Castle on NW4 when Hedley scuppered the marker system.
I thought I was a bit off course!
