Group Ride 10/22 Chimney Rock

Interesting. My Garmin Fenix 6 pro with speed sensor recorded 14.36 miles and 1,762 ft.

Garmin 520, wheel sensor on rear hub and used Strava elevation correction.

Just wanted to jump in and echo what has already been said.
I rode in Glens intermediate - intermediate ride, this was my first time and CR, it was loads of fun, it was great seeing so many people out, thanks to the ride leader and sweeper.

This shocks me.
The part about you enjoying it doesn’t.

Did you post a picture of the camera display? Can you transfer the picture to your phone instead? Looks like you projected the image on a wall from an angle…

Not going to lie, not a big fan of any group ride, including my own team. But will spread out my wings occasionally.

Unbelievable turn out! Bummed I had other plans and missed it.

I had a great time, and man, what a turnout! Thanks @pooriggy for organizing, and @jimvreeland for leading. Things started out poorly for me with a flat that wouldn't seal a few minutes in, but things got better from there. It's always fun riding and hanging out with a bunch of like minded people. Hope to see many of you at Wildcat next month!

Great ride today, beautiful weather. My Intermediate group of 8 7 was awesome.

I absolutely love this park. I've pretty much adopted it as my NJ trail system (newer rider from SI), and it makes me so happy to see people enjoy it for the first time.

I had no idea you even had a camera with you. You nailed all those features.

Great vid! Makes one feel like they are there as no music added that would otherwise filter out the sounds of riding. And what @clarkenstein said! Looks like OOS had a fun ride like usual.

Is the chest mount a better option?
I am a noob with this camera thingamajig

Cool. I was the guy in front of you in yellow jacket. Fun ride, good meeting you, nice to be on the bike again after a year off.

I like the chest mount perspective. Also doesn't shake as much as bar mounted since your body absorbs some of the bumps. Newer gen GoPro stabilization is pretty good though. I think I have the 8 and videos are great, but YouTube kills quality.

Only problem with the chest mount is the heartbeat being recorded as well as the panting/gasping...can't show to the wife or she would immediately veto any MTB ride to prevent the risk of a heart attack...
