GoPro Chest Mount

Here's a similar sequence taken from a chest-mounted camera. I like this position better because there is less wind noise, and you can easily tell that it's a view from a bicycle.

The camera needs to be adjusted when I tuck down out of the wind, then readjusted when I slow down and sit up again. You don't have to endure the constant rear-view mirror checking, and I can still turn it to the side to film pretty girls on the sidewalk.

This is pretty "hairy" to watch, especially when you come rapidly up to a blind, sharp corner and all of a sudden, there are a pair of concrete posts obstructing the path for anything wider than a bicycle -- providing the bicycle is steered toward the opening between the concrete posts!!

Great action; worth watching two or three times (which I have already!).

For pity's sake quit looking down, keep your eyes on the road! Fun to see your route!
