Messing with my GoPro in Lebanon

Thought I'd try out the GoPro early morning when the roads are emptiest..

i like it how on some roads there are no lane markers and one just decides for oneself whether it is a single lane or two lanes

That's bad@ss Sam.. I'm hoping to get one for myself after Xmas.

When it was mounted on your bumper facing backwards, were you using the suction cup mount or double sided tape mount?

Thanks guys, since the GoPro is mounted up front the sound of the intakes is quite dominant

I've never used the double sided tape yet, suction mount does the job perfect!

You got ***** Sam... Lol. I'd be afraid of losing that bad boy!

I borrowed a friends GoPro and used the suction cup on my windshield, that thing was no joke.

My dad races open wheel cars, and we use a go pro attached to the rollbar above his seat. I will tell you that we use zip ties and all kinds of methods to secure it, and I still never feel comfortable that it will stay. Suction cup?!?!?!?
