Old guys chickening out

Recommended Posts

Buddy on 2023 Triumph 1200 Rally Explorer and I turned around as it was getting too slippery. He asked me about the quality of the Video from the Sena 50C so I happened to take this quick video at our turn around point. Fyi I spun my bike around on the Camel ADV Short Kickstand. Was way easier than a slippery U turn. Fyi being able to use speech to start and stop recording on the Sena 50C is a great feature. I was testing the OBV ADV Gear Grip Mitts. I was wearing summer gloves with liners and we were riding in rain the whole day until  we hit the snow. Not a drop of water on my gloves, even standing the whole time. This was near Chelatchie WA. https://youtu.be/xtybHQcVmDM

As it turned out, my buddy gassed it at the wrong moment on an uphil and his rear wheel let go and down he went. it is a 1:07 on the video

Can you program it to start recording when it hears you say "Oh Crap" or something similar... ?

Ha, by then it is too late. But I literally have three cameras on board. My Sena 50C on my ADV helmet, The Front and rear dash cam and an "action camera" that does loop recording.

sometimes I forget to turn off the Action cam and get this type of video - blowing my Klim Airbag - there goes $90 !

I find it to be enjoyable to get some on board footage now and then but sadly also find it can be an unwelcome distraction.  Last on board footage I shot and uploaded was in Jan of 2021.

 

Dang didn't realize it had been that long until I just now looked.
