Mt. Hammy Solo Drive (Yellow Line Compliant) 10/15... 56K don't bother!!!

Here's a run I did on my own with my buddy trying to hold up a 4lb camera. We edited it down to about 12 minutes to keep the file size down. Hope you like it.....

Just click on "Mt. Hamilton Ride"

One of these days I'm going to get another camera for more footage to splice in

It's definitely possible to not cross the yellow line. I've known too many motorcycle riders who died from a head-on collision after the car going the other way crossed the yellow line. Please don't do it in the corners, you just might save a life!

That's number Uno on my shopping list!

I'm really happy with my 'suction cup' camera mount. I got it from I/O port racing supplies in the eastbay. I don't use it much so if you wanted to take a spin you would be welcome. Nice and stable shooting, used mostly for track days - you can stick it just about anywhere and it came with a safety strap you can attach to a LATCH point.

Also does not suffer from the amplified effect of the seatback moving since it would be firmly attached to a window.
