I started off thing that it was a bit ridiculous to ride around with a camera, but having watched the vids, its actually a great idea.
I have felt ridiculous and geeky this week using the camera. I have not achieved much as I am trying to find the perfect spot for it and I am afraid it will have to be mounted on my helmet. But so far:
- I asked a driver to put her phone down and pointed at the camera: she became absolutely livid and dropped her camera down her top/bra.
- I feel calmer
- Jaygee - who is generally ahead of me- shows off even more (races nodders, takes his hands off the handlebars, looks cool in general).
- unfortunately I missed capturing a cyclist undertaking a lorry that was turning left when the light changed to green. It was unbelievable but great skills from the lorry driver who checked his mirrors and waited for the cyclist to eventually passed him by.
That guy's videos on youtube are great (he is a bit of a show off though :). He filmed the cycle path on Vauxhall Bridge and the LCC have put it on their website. It is pretty scary and really show how pointless and dangerous that path is.

It is very sad indeed. The traffic goes far too fast around that area. I know it quite well as a pedestrian and have observed the traffic a lot (I don't cycle that way). The cycling facilities are shocking and the video shown on the LCC website (see page 1 of this thread) shows how terrifying that bridge can be for cyclists.
My thoughts to Mr Smith's family.

Report it to the estate agent as well. I
Yesterday I used my video camera for the first time and pointed it at a lady driving on her phone. We were both in stationary traffic at the time. She became livid and for some reason widened her top and dropped her mobile phone in her top/bra, I guess to hide it. (my camera didnt capture the episode as it was pointing at the tarmac, doh).

Where do you post your videos and how do you edit them?
I have been watching this guy's videos on youtube by the way.

I tried mine tonight and it's great except I don't know where to attach it. I put it on my rucksack but obviously only get the tarmac and not the road ahead. Can anyone post pics of how they've attached to handlebars?
Cheers
PS: I told a woman to get off her mobile phone and pointed at the camera, I felt bad she really looked upset. -
