Great postings lately, from Dorset to the Mediterranean to Oz, amazing.  The US west coast is in the middle of a terrible drought, so we've hung up the skis and got out the bikes.  Below is gopro of some single track at Cline Buttes outside of Sisters, Oregon.  High desert juniper forest lava flows and such.  As usual the gopro doesn't capture the slope on the hill climbs (because your head generally stays at the same angle to the ground, I suppose, regardless of slope), but this is good and gnarly terrain.  The TTR doesn't exactly explode out of the turns but I still love the soft tail and grip on the climbs.  Need to tilt the camera up a bit next time.

Good question on the exposure, I'll have to take a look.  The light was pretty "flat" that day.  The sound is odd (the gopro case is sealed, so the sound is oddly muffled but some sharp sounds seem to come through clearly).

good video, very true about the camera not picking up the angle but sometimes the trees give it away.

As for camera angles, I record in 960 as it makes it more forgiving, shows the bike & the sky up a little better, might be worth trying
