I was pretty far back when it happened, so I am not putting much faith in the GoPro footage but let me know. Calling CHP right now and...

    360-degree cameras

    I love my GoPro and how it is built like a tank but I am looking at 360-degree cameras so I can record all around me, including me! (I am really good looking) Anybody mount them to a bike? They don't seem to have the protection that GoPro has, both impact and weather protection. Am I going to...

The Shinko 244s I am looking at for the rear are sized in the former format. I found a conversion chart but there is a range (3.5x18 to 4.5x18) and I was wondering if I should...
