yea i was looking at getting one of those cameras to and strapping it either to my helmet or gas tank on my bike. Thanks for the offers for taking the gas. I just brought the bike out of storage yesterday, was interesting riding the bike home with all the sand and snow melting.

the go-pro's are awesome, i used to have one and then had to sell it because it was in the list of "barely used in the last year" so i could pay some bills. i want to get a couple of the high def ones when i can again.

since we r talking about those camera's, does anyone know if castrol allowes them to be mounted on the outside of the car during a drag race? I never seen anyone with them on the outside but i had a couple good ideas for one.

If I decide to come I will definitely take one of my friends' Go-Pro's. We use them all the
time and they work amazing for dirtbiking, skidooing, and snowboarding.

well I finally found this thread...

umm...

IMHO, this is too long.

the best day trips are aprox four hours round trip;
this allows ample time for stopping for photo ops, as well as stopping for food.

So I was thinking of doing a May road trip... I guess I can't go before the fifteenth huh?

this is exactly what I was thinking - this would make a longer road trip even funner... especially if poeple (such as myself) are probably going to be driving solo...

I can ask around to see if I can borrow some ~ does anyone have access to any?

I just posted this on the Facebook group;
Just to be clear (I'm not assuming that the route has been decided as of yet btw), what's the start/meeting point going to be?

Also, if someone will be needing a place to crash Saturday night, I might be able to accommodate.

^^ OK, updated "Event" information on FB.

If none of you guys can get radios, let me know asap, as I'd have to see who owns what before I can even ask to borrow.
