Descending the Switchbacks and Palos Verdes Drive on a BMW Williams F1 Q8R bicycle. From an altitude of 935 feet down to 158 feet, with a maximum speed just over 40 mph. Filmed using a GoPro Hero digital video camera during an abnormally warm January day along the Pacific Ocean in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA. Still working on better camera mounting and audio capture solutions.

  • you ruined this footage with the nasty ripple effect - - very poor editing post production-

    give it a 2 on a scale of ten-

  • @rentatrip1 - That's the raw footage from the cam. Nothing was added post production.

  • Where did you mount the camera? I'm thinking of trying to mount one on my helmet.

  • It was mounted to the stem. The helmet would be a cool perspective as well, and probably less vibration.
