Link To 12 Or So Helmet Cam Videos.


Recommended Posts

coming soon to a HQ near you. Abysshelmetcams in your face riding action. I've had one for like a year now and have only been able to use it one time. First ride, right at the end as we came back to our trucks, I was doing a wheelie up the stone driveway, started spinning on some grass growing up through it, gave it some more gas and grabbed stone again, grab bar dug in, rear tire grabbed in, and next thing I know I was cartwheeling down the driveway. Busted my a-arm up at the spindle, bent grab bar.....and a broken camcorder.

 

Turns out that my dumbass put the camera on camera mode instead of vcr....and the whole time the only footage I got was sound.....it was a good ride too.

 

So now I got a new camcorder (same one), 3 extra long life batteries for it, and like 15 tapes so I'll be getting plenty of footage.

 

Paid like 430 for the helmetcam from helmetcamera.com (the better resolution one) and like 300 for the camcorder with all the extra stuff off ebay. It's a trv-330 and an awesome camcorder. It's got video in and a firewire.

 

Now all I gotta do is transfer all my stuff over to my newer gateway and get off this shitty HP with windows 98 that doesnt support my firewire and wont upload sound from usb.

 

Soooon though.....when coalfest is going on, I'll be riding down in Virginia.

If you've got windows 98 it doesnt support uploading of sound with a usb. I believe their is drivers you can get to support the uploading of sound.

 

But I got another gateway thats a lot faster and better machine (out of the trash, some kid musta got a new one or something)

 

This little 450mhz pos HP just isnt cutting it any more.....I knew it was junk when I had to pull the cd-rom and power package halfway out of the tower just to install the little wire that goes from the soundcard to the cd-rom. Plug and play my ass.

 

Gotta love being a recyling man......all sorts of freebies. Finally just bought a power inverter to see if stuff thrown away still works. In three years I've gotten brand new leather couches ("special" rooms of rich folk that want a different look). 2 kids recliners, a kids chair that is dressed up as a giraffe (basically brand new and their like 100 bucks), a nice recliner, 2 20" computer monitors, the HP I'm using now, the Gateway (tower, 17"monitor, mouse, keyboard), digital electric heater that was brand new, a cat tree house that is well made that's gotta be worth like 300 bucks, all sorts of tools, and many other things that I cant remember right now.

 

One rich man's trash is another man's treasure. Gotta love ebay.
