Thanks guys. Yeah, Ptero, the six pics from the riding position are from a GoPro hero 3 mounted to the chin on my helmet. Those are screenshots captured from playback on my computer. I have another hero 3 mounted on the handlebar which I use for the sound - I have a lavalier mic attached to it which is velcro'd to the underside of the right grab bar.
It's interesting what can be caught on camera like that bird- which for a second I thought I was going to hit @ 60mph... The wide angle of the GoPro makes it look farther away than what it actually was.
