    so i got a camera mount the other day, and after a few tweaks, i finally got a good picture.

    this is a little mountain we have around here.. Mt. Lemmon for the locals.. i live like 5 minutes from the bottom :biggrin: it's like 25 miles to the top..9000 ft elevation.. and then you turn around and come back down. this is just a small portion.

    don't mind the camera strap flapping around :frown:

    enjoy!

    Cool video. Great song. What kind of camera and mount did you use?
    I lived in Thatcher(for a short time) when I was a kid in the 80's My dad worked at Morenci.

    Pretty cool video! The quality's pretty good compared to some of the other YouTube videos where it's kinda of grainy and looks like they took a cellphone camera and taped it on the bike.

    Next time don't be shy with the RPMs - it can handle a few more thousand :biggrin:

    oh, im not normally shy about the RPM's, but that particular road is known to be heavily patrolled, and the speedlimit is 35 the whole way up.. they start impounding at 20 over.... i was well above that at points.

    sometimes i'll get a little frisky, but that ride was more to test out the mount than anything.

    Oh how I don't miss the Pima County Sheriffs Department. I've even had trouble on the fire road up the backside from Oracle!
