Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

I had some issues with copyright, so I had to remix it with some Creative Commons Copyrighted music....it actually improved it.

Veoh got a complaint from the management about copyright violation, so I couldn't upload the ozzie version.

Cool video.
I am surprised that with all the police I saw, none of them stopped you. I lost count of the number of stop signs I saw you run!

That's so cool that you were able to record video of the event. Have you figured out a way to attach the cam to your top tube as opposed to your stem/handlebars? I imagine that would eliminate nearly all of the back and forth shake.

About the ony alternative I have would be to attach to the helmet and that violates USAT rules.....no helmet mods. It's a DQ offense. My top tube is too wide a diameter and the camera would interfere with cable routing. Also, in the handlebar spot it's located, the camera is protected if I happen to crash. The only other location I could put it would be the seatpost, and then all you'd see would be a leg pedaling or a rear view of everyone overtaking me. The camera controls would also be inaccessible.

What is the name of that tune, who is the artist, and where did you find it? Kinda catchy......

I still think you need some kind of gimbal mount for the camera, to slow down the camera movement, a little movement is okay, but folks who have some motion sickness issues, probably shouldn't watch it.
