My after work dual sporting ritual: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cPxyXWbTSA If you've never seen a motorcycle almost run over a fish before, well, here ya go. Also before accusations fly I just want to point out that a wide angle lens pointed downward exaggerates the perception of speed when I goose it through first and second on a wide street with no moving cars or people and unrestricted visibility. So, yea.

Got a GoPro for xmas, finally tried out one of the helmet mounts today. First video so (of course) it ended up pointed way too far down, but I made this short clip showing how slowing down and reducing handlebar input on a muddy section almost gave me a face full of dirt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojvH47SFZeI It doesn't look very dramatic but if it's happened to you you'll know the feeling!

Man I came to this forum all pumped up from one of the MSF sport bike rider courses as my three year refresher and it turned into helicopter town. Flying under the curve is dangerous but remember that the other axis of that graph is airspeed; cattle herders can keep themselves out of that profile with sufficient airspeed even flying at low altitude. Low inertia rotor systems are not death sentences, though it'll tell you in the operators manual of such an aircraft that completion of a successful hovering autorotation in such a profile is extremely unlikely and the pilot's successful identification of and reaction time to the problem are the greatest factors. Some operators of helicopters (like the Army) prohibit touchdown autorotations for training purposes for certain aircraft (like those with dual engines) due to the likelihood of damage exceeding the likelihood of a dual engine or other failure that would require such a maneuver, however environmental factors can make the single engine operating envelope so narrow that it essentially becomes a power-on descent at max rate of climb airspeed. Motorcycles typically have zero rotor systems, though I definitely feel the effects of the wheels gyroscoping as increased steering effort when I change from street tires to heavy duty knobbies.

LifeSizePotato posted:I like all the references to the ~*stories*~ they'd tell, as if every one of them is a Sir Richard Burton or Ernest Hemingway type. The only way to get mad about these videos is if you think that they're all trying to make serious drama. What they're all actually trying to do is shoot the best motorcycle-themed perfume commercial set in the 1970s that they possibly can. If you had a french lady whisper "the new fragrance by Johnny Depp" at the end all these videos would make total sense.
