Hi,
I have tried something new. To me at least, as I can clearly see on YouTube it is not new to to the world. However, I have fun and that is the main thing. The camera used for the recording is a normal digital camera which can video tape. The first video made was handheld, and regards to road safety it was not the best solution. Then I made the bracket for some old camera mount I found somewhere in a box. The bracket was quickly made, and I look forward to try it. The camera is not waterproof, and those days here we are about to recieve our part of the reason why the fields are so green and nice, that I see no reason to take out the motorcycle and the non-water proof camera.

I like to have fun taking pictures of where I have been – and still does. But the camera has two functions so why not benefit of that?
Further, it is always nice with some new ways to show other motorcyclists about a nice ride and also good to better remember the tour myself. The one I made can be seen here:
I like cameras, for still pictures and videos – but is a bit allergic to roadside mounted cameras or the ones which are handheld by out authorities. Wonder why..
Have a videosafe ride,
Jan

Touring the world on 2 Danish Motorcycles
I love the camera idea and it looks like your Denmark tour has some nice twisty roads great for riding. I’m wondering if you have to edit your videos at all and if so what software do you use?
Looks very interesting. Before getting married I like traveling with my bike. Like you, I usually invite my friends to record our activities. The video was really cool, not like taken from a normal digital camera.
I do not edit my video tours especially much – just using Windows Movie maker. In this tour, I just tried to make is relative short, but int the future it might be necessary to make more editing. The software is pretty good, and intuitive to use. Actually the camera is a cheap standard camera, but it does the job very well.
The camera stand I made is not good. Just tried to make a video, but the vibrations were too much, so I need figure out another solution.
