Ran across these yesterday. Some nice, rocky stuff in there! Check out the GS, guy does a great job of handling that big pig.

pretty good photography for a helmet cam. i like on the end of the first vid. watching those guys ride those bucking bikes up the hill and down into the dirt. looked like a good time.
That rocky wash in #2 was kinda scary! The guy on the big GS didn't even drop it!!
yea it was. that gs looks like a frigging elephant. it has to weigh a ton the way he has it loaded, judging by the way it's suspension was bouncing going down that wash. i'd be pretty worried about bashing the heads on rocks the way they stick out there so wide. even with good skid plating it would still worry me.
I've only watched #2 so far.. but its pretty cool. The GS looks like a bit much for that type of riding, doesn't it? The difference between it and the 950 were pretty remarkable.
That pass didn't look all that much worse than some of the crap we've ridden through to me. At least the really tough section was short.

i was thinking the same thing. at least it wasn't mixed with loose dirt, trees, and at a steep incline for hundreds of yards. we need a helmet cam in the group so we can share our craziness with the world.

#1 & #2 are the best, #3 is just a music video combining stuff from #1 & #2, well done though.

Looked easier than that giant hill I had to have Brian ride my 950 down. I think that hill would be much easier if it was covered with big rocks like the one in the video, those little rocks just make it like riding on ice! :o

I'm most likely gonna get one before the June rally. Prices are coming down on the really cheap ones. ;D
