Is taking a camera out pre-meditated or do you guys use a phone or what?

Cause I rarely take pictures while i'm out riding as I just dont think about taking a camera and my phone is shiiiiiiiit.

Pre-Med here. Not to take a picture of something particular though. Got a big (to me!) HS30EXR for events, but otherwise I shove a little old Canon Ixus 75 into my pocket whenever I go out. Just a standard little digital camera. Like having a camera camera with me now Smile

Everingham.

Nearly crashed there week before last. Woman pulled out of a lane, without so much as a glance to her right. Luckily I was:

a). Going slow (under 20)

b). Fucking well psychic

Seriously - I had a total vibe thang and felt like something was going to pull out on me, I even went so far as to arc outwards as though a vehicle was already there. Less than a second later there was. If I'd have been going a little faster I'd have probably been on her bonnet. Worst of it was she gave me this look like it was me who'd pulled out on her! Fucks sake.

I was riding the opposite direction to the way the camera's facing there. Immediately opposite that white house is a T-junction. I had been coming down the road with the white house directly on my right, and turned left into the road that the camera is on. Where that privet hedge is on the right of the photo is actually a lane leading to some houses. She came out of there. True, it's really difficult to see right as you do that - but of course that's all the more reason why she should've edged out, rather than just driving like everyone else in the world has been abducted by aliens.

Sinnis Trackstar.

Linky to post about it, 7400km on clock, nothing further to add to the post so i guess everything I say there still stands : https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=3498620#3498620

It aint quick, it bimbles about slowly, gets silly MPG (calculations in the post linked to), its a nice wee bike for £1400, and hasn't fallen apart (yet) & it looks really... Cute....

Bit off topic, seen your Duchinni D311 hanging off your bike in your photo. Been looking at them myself. I have read in reviews that they tend to make them on the small side. I can't find any stockists in my area so may end up ordering online.

Did you have to buy a size larger than your normal size?

Cheers

My V-Cans I think are Medium, Duchinnis a large.

Couple of things about the Duchinni.

1. Its fack me noisey. You WILL need earplugs with it. Though I am told its the same with all dual sport helmets, and my only previous experience is with cheapy V-Cans.

2. The vent bit infront of the mouth gets wobbly easy.

3. Its the same as an Acerbis and Wulfsport helmet. Only difference I can tell is the price (£50 v £80 v £120) and the chin strip (D's on the Duchinni, clunk click on the Acerbis and Wulfsport)
