Very nice. Like 'foil' below, I think it would be interesting to see what happens when you place the camera somewhere else. Should be in the middle of the bike, I expect, to minimize movement.
Anyways, wouldn't mind seeing more. Nice music, too!
I did tests with a different camera mounted on the handlebars first. The vibration is far worse there than on the helmet. Knees make good shock absorbers... we don't realise how much we naturally damp vibration.
The problem with the helmet mount is that every time I turn around the sped up footage looks jerkier and because I was with a friend, I was turning around a lot to chat etc.
Looks pretty good. Seeing that it makes you realise how difficult it must be to cycle around while keeping your head facing forward at all times. I take it you know the girl in blue top/denim shorts or skirt/black leggings as otherwise she was coincidentally cycling the same route as you at the same pace!
Speeding it up accentuates all the jerkiness - even though I've cut out a as much of it as I could. A smooth looking version exists... but takes 75 minutes to view.
bit of a ska kid dave?

Have you tried the GroPro Helmet Hero?
I'm going to buy one pretty soon, I hear its one of the best. But it does eat up the batteries.

That's what the first videos here were shot on. It's fine... but it can't record enough in one go for my needs.

Nice idea, shame it's not a bit smoother... but then a bike helmet isn't the most stable of places to put a camera.
