Bavington ride, more camera info.

We did a tough ride at Bavington Yesterday. We did a bunch a trails the reverse of the normal way and they really didn't work well in the opposite direction. It made for a tough day of riding. Some trails are very overgrown and I hope to do some more brush cutting soon. The ticks were very bad in the fields. I check after every section of tall grass and ended up with about 6-7 of them on me. blaaaah
Poison ivy is really growing in in some areas. I'll do a post with our poison ivy tips soon.

I shot some video with the GoPro Hero Wide camera mounted on my helmet. It isn't any heavier than a helmet light. Even though there isn't a remote for it I found that it was pretty easy to use with it up there. The camera only has 2 buttons, power/mode and record/select. I set the camera so it went into video mode as soon as it was turned on. When you press the record button there is a low beep. When you push it again to end the recording there are two beeps. They are very soft, but if you aren't moving you can here them. I found it pretty easy to reach up, turn the camera on and start/stop recording. I'll do some quick edits and throw up some video tonight. Nothing very exciting, but some beautiful single track.
