Byron MX – KX250 – GoPro Hero3+ 8/2/13

Many of you have asked when I was going to post some vids of me riding the 2001 KX250 I bought last November. Well, I finally was able to get my hands on a GoPro Hero 3+, and shoot some MX riding at Bryon Motosports Park.

I only rode a few times in 2012/2013 after leaving the sport back in 2002. I gotta say, I’m out of shape and rusty. One hard lap and I’m pretty much out of breath. You’ll notice that I take it easy in the straights to rest as much as possible.

I tried out a couple of different GoPro mounts: side mount on helmet and handlebar mount. The footage on the handlebar mount comes out very shaky, while the side mount on helmet looks pretty amazing. I think I even prefer it over footage shot with camera on top of helmet.

Some updated pictures. It looks the same minus 20 monster energy stickers.

Please comment below. I’d love to hear from you more experienced riders and share some riding tips, as well as what you do do stay in shape for riding.
