hi guys,

today i finally managed to get a decent run and test the Veho Muvi cam properly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMg2-O6iB0o

the mounting on the helmet i find works best...least amount of vibration and good field of vision vs...mounted on the bike!

this is my favourite local road - the A339 Basingstoke to Alton.

i stopped also at the local BMW dealer - watch their faces as i drive right in the middle of the forecourt!

wind noise is still something i will need to address and gets sorted...so apology for that!

traffic was relatively light - whatever got in front was quickly dealt with - lol

enjoy
Lars

Lars,

Very nice. Always good to see another part of the world.

Yes, overtaking on a bike is "quickly dealt with."

I had an old video cam/camcorder with a microphone that I mounted under the rear fender; not as much wind noise and more engine noise. Depending on the engine that might be better or worse!

Lars, happen to know where Corfe Mullen (near Poole) is located. Have some very good friends there.

Since the roads are so narrow in the UK, its enlightening that you have to practice lane discipline in the curves, where when you lean right, you are normally in the left side of the lane.

Too often here in the states, riders just stay close to the center line, no matter which way they are leaning. This could lead to catastrophic results when you end up on narrow roads (like Deals Gap) - which is not as narrow as the average back road in the UK, but lots of blind corners.
