Learn to ride first I believe. Why publish the fact and make the whole world aware of your inability to ride?
There is enough of this stupidity people get their jollies off on You Tube and alike....
Just ride, enjoy and share with your friends....Not the forum to do it here. Surely!

Hey man
I am prob going to get shreds ripped off me for this by some of the guys in here by the looks of the comments.
But I have started playing around with motovlogging. Feel free to check out my channel. I am only doing it for a bit of fun so my vid are not that good but starting to get a little better.
As for other motovlogger my fav NZ Vlogger would be Tankgrrrl from Wellington. But the ones i really like are Accidentalbroadcast, eveRide ADV Jakethegardensnake, leadpin, AdjrianNickelodeon, mototrippin.
Some of the people in here do have a point about not trying to talk to much if your new to riding.
I have been riding for a few years now and i still find I stop talking a lot to considerate on what i am doing, and end up saying umm and ahh alot.

Will have to look you up when i get home. I dabble a bit as well, kiwi on wheels is my channel, gymkhana and bike stuff. Should have another video up in the next couple of days

As I said on page 1, I will take the occasional still from my gopro to add to my ride reports, I do use the camera on most rides, but if I get home and nothing interesting has occurred then the video gets deleted. Nothing lost. What few videos I have uploaded have been about having a go at achieving something new on the pc, not to impress anyone.
I up loaded a boring ride clip once, (actually, I've uploaded lots of boring videos) then got a PM from an ex kiwi who grew up in the district 30 years ago. He was rapped at seeing his old family home and old pine trees that he used to climb.

I've done a bit of onboard videoing of riding and gymkhana stuff but it's pretty boring. Not quite so bad with music added but as per a few comments on here, the editing can be a bit of a drag. None the less, I've added vid links to the occassional blog.
I see there is a bluetooth back available for the GoPro to connect up with the Sena, but can't say I'd consider adding the voiceover as I'd probably even bore myself.
As for using it for learning experiences and fails. I don't think you get much idea of what's happening from an onboard camera as the perspective is very insulated frrom all the things that are going on with, and around the bike. That sort of thing would be better if you were the subject from another bike, but even then, the wide angle view loses a lot of any valid perspective?

Hi all,
New biker here and I'm just wondering if there are any bikers here who keep or post vlogs? I know there are quite a few in aus and I am pretty certain there are a few in NZ. I was thinking of keeping a gopro on my helmet incase of accidents or other such things, and came across the thought of vlogging, although once I improve in riding. What are your thoughts on this, and also thoughts on attaching a camera to the helmet to use similar as a dash cam? appreciate the input thanks!!!

I hope you have thick skin! There will be some quite strong opinions posted on this thread I am picking.

Indeed. KiwiBikers are a bunch of keyboard warriors, we are not to show our true form.
If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
Talk shit. Get hit
A go pro wont record for long enough to do what you want. I get maybe 60mins of recording if im lucky, its awkward to operate on my helmet and gets its mic jammed up from all the wind noise. I don't ride a honda, so am not gay enough to ride around talking to myself.Hi all,

I have a hero4 and only use it for underwater filming. Most people want a simple switch on and film camera and the gopro can do that but it can also film professional quallity if you know what your doing

There are one or two genuinely entertaining or interesting ones. Even then, to keep things fresh is difficult. Roadcraft Nottingham is good, as he's got a fairly unique viewpoint (he's a riding instructor), owns/rides/reviews a bunch of different bikes, and has a bunch of cameras.
Most of them are just annoying extroverts who drop $500 on a GoPro, chuck it on their bike, swear for the sake of swearing, have no idea what they're going to talk about before they go out, and spend 15 minutes saying sweet fuck all (when they're not blasting along at 100mph with enough wind noise to blow your speakers).
Questions to ask yourself
- Go for a ride, pretend you have a camera and you're going to talk about something, are you good enough a rider that you can talk about something intelligently while still riding?
- Will you shoot footage along different routes or do you just commute the same route every day? Do you go touring and do trackdays? Will you be prepared to spend hours faffing about with cameras and memory cards during them?
- Are you prepared to spend hours upon hours editing the footage, cutting down a half hour rambling mess into 5-10 minutes that is actually interesting?
- Do you regularly spend money on things that you can review?

I can get the best part of 10GB of recording from my Hero 3 set on 720 x 25. Think that added up to a total of 2hr of recording. If I want to clip or edit anything from the recorded takes at home, I open them in Live Movie Maker and edit there. Under video edit tools I mute the wind/engine noise then add music and save, if there is anything interesting worth keeping. Still cant get the video clip to fade out. I haven't tried doing a voice over yet. My recorded voice sounds crap, I cringe just listening to our phone mailbox message.
If talking to your self is being gay, what does singing to yourself make you?Plenty do. Talking into a mike while riding could be distracting. I would imagine that adding a voice over at home would be a safer bet.

The most boring evening I ever spent was at a friends house watching a visitor show video of his holiday. There was no editing whatsoever, so if he went for a boat ride that lasted an hour, there was an hour of boat ride video. And I wish it was only an hour.
Wearing a GoPro on your helmet is not a great idea. OK, I know some of the GP riders do it in training and in the Superprestigio or wherever. But the surgeons have said that the reason Schumacher is in the sad state that he is in, is due to the fact that he had a GoPro on his helmet. Mounting it on the bike is another matter.
Today was a lovely day and I rode up to Mokau and had whitebait, eggs, and chips for lunch. The lack of a GoPro did not detract from the experience in the least
