Has anyone used a dash cam to record there rides. I'd like to record the rides around Inzane for later viewing. Are the dash cams to low on quality to get decant video? Thanks MRTLC

Don't know about "dash cams" per se, but there are cameras like the Go-Pro, Sena, and Drift as well as other knock offs of those. Usually secured to a helmet or a fixed place on the bike.
I have a Drift that clips to the helmet. The clip receiver for the camera is on the helmet by an adhesive.
I like the helmet cam as it allows me to keep the camera on a particular subject for a longer period of time simply by turning my head. Have the camera "adjusted" to have what I am directly looking at in center frame.

Quality of these cameras are generally outstanding. Look up Go-Pro, Sena or Drift cameras to find the stats, details, and prices.

I usually just get the camera out for long vacation trips and for special rides.

I use a Gopro (facing the front) together with a chinese knock off (facing the rear).

I would say the harder part is to actually edit the videos later.
