Would love to view a ride when back home.

Not to expensive but secure and easily cleaned. Oh and HD if there is one?

Cheers

unless your going down the Gopro or similar road it will cost a few sheckles....i had a 720p one my wife bought me.she asked someone else for advice and bought 1 and paid over the odds for it,at 1st i thought it was ok,but when i upgraded to the silver edition Gopro and quality of video is so way better its unreal,even try and buy a case for your mobile and try that as its still way better than most cheap cameras.iphones are720 -1080p hd video,

The veho hd7 I had was good video wise, but my early model had a problem where you couldnt remove the datestamp. I believe this has been fixed.

This is the HD10 one, bit over your budget. Have a look on ebay too.

Never used one, but the contour Roam seems to have a decent rep, under budget too.

The Drift HD 720 is currently £129.99 at action cameras.
I have one and find the footage more than enough for bike vids.

What you reckon to this ?
And can you have mounted on the rear?

Ive just spent this week playing with my Drift as i placed a mount on my swing arm near the axle.
To be honest, i wasn't too sure about the Drift stick-on mounts but if you do it properly - clean the area with isopropyl alcohol - they stick like hell, certainly not coming off again!

Makes for a great vid angle, thinking about mounting it to the forks now for a forward shot.
