Default Rear camera mount

Decided to make a video camera mount to film the chaos behind me on our group rides. I mounted it where the grab handle goes on the banana seat models. Camera sits atop the flat plate facing rear and bolts thru the plate with a 1-1/2" ****. It can also be swiveled 360 degrees for different shots.

Thats pretty spiffy, looks pretty professional. I wouldn't have guessed that you made it yourself if you hadn't said so. Might catch some funny shots with it.

Here's some video from my tank mount. Right-click, save-as. Ride 3.1.09

Tomorrow is the big group ride. I'll use the rear mount and the tank mount and post the vid.

Nice? Down here?

I'd give a body part to have the twisty, hilly terrain found most places in the USA! It's straight and boooooring here.

Nice edits on this. You made boring straight roads look fun.
