Re: Videoing STUFF

I splashed out on a GoPro Hero 8 and am very, very pleased with the quality - 4k and super-smooth, The recording process has been somewhat frustrating at times but amongst many less-than satisfactory videos are some really nice ones.

I want to do short vids of a single trail, a section of interesting road, a pass up and down the gears on a particular bike.

Re: The Suzuki DR thread.
