I had this great idea that I would ride my motorcycle, with my camera hanging around my neck, and would be able to shoot without stopping. Apparently, I was lacking in either riding or photographing skills, and found this to be impossible. Instead, I put the camera in my tank bag, and had to pull off the road to take every picture, sometimes risking death just to bring you these photos.

19.9 miles to go.

Buy one of these: Gorilla Tripod, affix to your handlebars or helmet and try again.

BigV, that's really neat, but we're going to need a bigger Gorilla, or a smaller camera. It says that the maximum weight capacity is 9.7 ounces. The D70 weighs 21 oz, plus battery and lens.

I have been considering getting a smaller camera.

Edit: I just went to the Joby site and saw this. That might be the way to go.
