Title: long vid (18min) of rt 160 between Cumberland, KY and Big Stone Gap, VA. (NGC)
Post by: rdbandkab on July 21, 2015, 05:45:42 AM

On our other Italian.....Capo 1200.
Found this road on our last trip..   Nice road surface and full of twisties..  We came around one turn and came face to face (or about 60 feet away) from a momma black bear and three cubs!!

Music by Beck.

Some old mining towns we went through.    You can see the mining operations with Google Earth..  (or satellite view)

Thanks!

GoPro Hero4 Silver..

I'll have to find my windscreen mount again.   When I mount the camera pre-screen,  it gives more motor sound and less wind sound.  When it's on my helmet post-windscreen,  lots of wind noise.   It's that way on all the bikes I've used it on.

Nice video, I thought the music matched the relaxed pace of the ride.  Very nice.

Our old Kodak just died, and I've been looking for another camera, and been thinking about the Hero 3 and Hero 4.   What's the difference that makes one $100 more than another?    I'm usually happy with fairly low tech ..... ?

I think the Hero4 Black comes with a small bluetooth remote and a couple more settings (possibly better slow motion resolution).   I figured the Silver was good enough for now..   I can add a remote later or even use a iphone app to control the camera (I'm almost positive).
