I strapped a Canon Digital Rebel to my bars with a Gorillapod flexible tripod, set the focus to infinity, the mode to sport, and the FOV to the widest 28mm.
And below is the results in a flash movie. I need to take shots about three times more often in order to make it easier to understand where I'm going, but I thought you might like it. Click the link and wait about a minute for the flash movie to load, there's no preloader so it'll just start.
Yes, a short ride for a lot of you guys, but I'm just starting out.
