Every year, I try to go on a one to two weeks trip. Last year I went to northern BC and on Vancouver island and this years, well... locations and timing still a secret but about 8000 km in 2 1/2 weeks and solo this time. I'm planning on doing a report when i'm back on Advrider and i'll put the link here.
Right now I'm looking for the perfect location to mount my camera, the handlebars didn't worked, too much vibrations.
Oh yes, "Pictures or Videos", those stickers look pretty good!

I think this mounting location will work!

That's a good angle!
To combat vibrations, I've had good results with the Manfrotto Nanoclamp.
Seems to be nice and steady wherever I clamp it. It's also easy to quickly move to a different spot if you feel like getting a different shot.

I picked it up at Don's Photo on 8th.
You can attach either 1/4" and 3/8" standard studs to it.
I actually use a special adapter so the GoPro will work with the standard 1/4".
I also use a Manfrotto 482 Micro Ball Head so I can position the camera freely.

I'm going to Cabela's tomorrow, opening day, got to see it. I'll stop by 8th Street and see what he has. Future shop, best buy and black couldn't help, thanks for the tip.

FYI, Don's photo has them in stock. I was just there yesterday and saw 3 or 4 on the shelf.

Just back from my trip yesterday afternoon, just over 8000 km. Went thru Montana and took 89 in Yellowstone,
Then stayed in Palm Spring for 5 days.
Took The Pacific Coast Highway from Dana Point all the way to Oregon.
Stopping along the way at some pretty cool places.
and got hit by a nasty storm around Medicine Hat
Now I just need time to do a report!
