Recording video while cycling- looking for input

I'm doing the B2B in a few weeks and would like to do a video recording/clip of the adventure. I'm looking at the Go Pro units and they look like a solid option. I'm thinking it would be great if I could buy a new traditional camera and use the video function to capture video, however. This way I can use the camera on my summer vacation, get much more use out of it in general and have an easier time justifying the expense. If I buy the Go Pro, I'll only use it a handful of times. I have access to a full CNC Machine shop, so creating a mounting system won't be a problem for the traditional camera. Has anyone mounted or used a traditional camera to record video while cycling? My concern is the video won't be as stable as the Go Pro unit. Any ideas or suggestions or do I need to bite the bullet and get the Go Pro unit?
