New England colors in the Fall

[curlyjoe]

I decided to give my GoPro a shot again and the results came out ok but after loading up to youtube it doesn't look so good.

Well, at least it'll give you an idea of what kind of riding we have in the northeast.

Roads are 225 in MA, 31 and 136 in NH and 13 in NH.

YouTube takes some time to process an uploaded video so it will take a while for the best quality to be available. I am getting 720 and it looks really good! Are you using a RAM Mount? Have you tried helmet mount at all?

I've tried a helmet mount and a chest harness but with those options i find it very difficult to turn it on and off. Pterodactyl mentioned some time back that it works quite well mounting it on the clutch reservoir with the flat "sticky" mount that came with the camera, so that's what I did for this ride. It's easy to turn it off and on so maybe I'll use it more. Maybe I'll look into a handlebar mount so I can catch the speedo and tach in the video.

My GoPro was the cheapest one available at the time so I can't use a wireless remote with that model. With the wireless remote you can mount the camera anywhere and then mount the remote on the bar to turn it on and off.

Yes, if you're not accustomed to the buttons, they are nearly impossible with gloved hand! Great video none the less, thanks for sharing.

Nice ride video!
Without the traffic, they would be similar to some of the back roads I ride.

Thanks for posting your video clip, We just got back from our fall foliage tour. The colors were just amazing! the the towns and food were great. We drove the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire and Rt. 100 in Vermont and many other back roads off the Interstates. Acadia National Park was just beautiful and we saw the first sunrise atop Cadillac Mountain! Great motorcycle roads to discover in your neck of the woods!

That's another great place to ride in this country. You were blessed cooldrum. I bet it was spectacular in fall colors. My wife and I toured up there a few years ago but it was in September and all green.

We have family spread throughout New England and have spent a good amount of time out there over the years. I can say that area in the autumn ranks right up there amongst my favorite places on earth.
