It's BikeCam™!
The throwaway camera was a success on the Montauk Century. I thought that
it would be even better if the camera were mounted on the handle bars
so I wouldn't have to reach into a pocket for it. And I might capture
some of the sort of shots that are gone by the time you've reached for
the camera.
So I built
BikeCam™ with a bent coat hanger, some pieces of plastic and Velcro
The camera can be pulled off its platform and reattached instantly. And
it's always there, ready for use.
It had to be tested. I set out with it on the week following the the ride
to Nyack where I bumped into Ron and Jeffrey (see Prelude
if you haven't already). Neither of them called me during the week so
I set out by myself, mid-morning on a Saturday, headed for Nyack.
