Right, a few of you were asking what footage at night would look like.

Last night I went on a night ride and took the Hero along mounted on the bars (with the Hero Ride kit). Unfortunately this was a road ride, so the footage is a bit dull, but it did give the Hero a good test as it had to cope with variable light conditions, including oncoming traffic. Generally I think it performed well (considerin the cost of the unit) and I think it will be much better off road in the woods where there will be a bit more to light up. I was riding with my Hope Vision 4 on LOW power and the Hero adjusts it’s sensitivity according to the brightest light it sees, judging by the footage.

Anyway, here is a clicky linky thingy to the video so you can judge for yourselves.

Oh, and being a road ride there was a mandatory puncture as well 😉
