As above. Bloody cold, but dry and beautiful.

Excellent! What gimbal are you using?

It's all in-camera, Paul. The Gopro Max has "horizon lock" which keeps the image level to what it was when switched on. This works in normal "Hero mode" like here, and also in 360 mode. 360 mode also has "world lock" which seems to keep the field of view in the same orientation as at switch-on. That seems a bit odd, it doesn't 'follow' bends in the road. This was the first test. It had a clip on clear cover to protect the lens, this steamed up inside later on.

Cracking video  :thumb: I liked the fact you could hear the engine but there was hardly any annoying wind noise. It's surprising how much work the front suspension does when you see it on camera !

I like the 'horizon lock'. With my fixed  'cheap' camera position I get seasick after 10 minutes watching the video!!  :sick:
