Ram mounts:



the flat plate is intended to go onto brake or clutch reservoir but I used it to give a flat plate to then attach the Drift  mount. When Im at cycle events I add a short ram extension to get the camera away from the screen sign.


I now also use a tether to stop camera escape!

I don't have a rear camera


Hope this helps

Cheers good use of the plate as they don't fit onto the reservoir

Sorry to be a Killjoy but is that level of danger / risk / inconvenience / cost etc. really justified for a load of pedal pushers?

Either fully closed roads as per motorcycle road racing, or as with motorbikes ... get on a track.

Try telling that to this load of cyclists, oh, and just to hold your interest there's about 20 + GTR's of various colours in the video!!

Each to their own: I first  saw the NEG when I went to watch the Tour of Britain a few years ago and subsequently got involved to get a new challenge and do something different on my bike. I enjoy it, get a contribution towards the cost of doing it, have met some really good people as a result of being involved in cycle racing and had the opportunity to work at the 2012 Olympics and this years National Road Championship Road Race

Regardless of the status of the event from Club level to elite, the riders always say THANKS to us.

AND riding in and around racing cyclists certainly keeps your observations sharp!
