I am just now getting back into riding after a mishap with a bigger vehicle and found the idea of a camera and GPS might be pretty slick. The camera could provide dual responsibilities. It would be cool to view the rides and also have some video just in case something should go wrong. I see several have the ContourHDp but I see there is a GPS model as well.

I am old school and don't have the cool smartphone yet but would like to mess around with say a camera and then a garmin of some sort to check out videos and edit possibly. Is the consensus the ContourHD with Garmin 500? Would this allow me to connect the two to get the ride data along with the video? I see the Contour comes with software to edit the video.

I think this looks pretty cool and just wanted the experts to give me the lowdown about it before I sank the cash for the new bling.

Cheers!
