It seem like after every race someone is posting about a missing GoPro camera. I know they aren't cheap so I wanted to let everybody know about LIC goggels (liquid image goggels). IMO they are just as good if not better than the GoPro and best of all the camera is made into the goggels, so if you keep your goggels on you face the hole race the camera will still be with you in the end. I have the 1080 LIC. Both my cousin and uncle have the 720 which work great and are cheaper than the GoPro. I ran my 1080 all year, some races in 1080 and some in 720, both looked great. Just figured I would put it out there for those who didn't know about them http://www.liquidimageco.com/

So I came home today and was talking about this with the Mrs. and she turns and says that she knows about this product. She said that she has seen this on "Groupon". If anyone knows about Groupon, they have great deals on a lot of crap, except for this time!!
Unfortunately, the groupon has expired.....BUT, I have been advised that it may come back in the next couple of months. The price tag with a groupon is......$149.00!!!
Here is the link to prove it!

So have the little lady keep an eye out for it to return - AND let everyone know!!!

GoPro lanyards are $15, but it seems that they are rarely used.
Much easier to have to ask sweepers where yours is after a low hangin' limb takes it clean off of your helmet. :roll:

There is a reason I mounted my gopro under my visor.

I have personally used both the gopro and the LIC goggles and i definitely like the LIC goggles better. the reasoning is that i rode two races with my gopro and on the second race my gopro clipped one tree and was completely destroyed. I bought the 720p LIC goggles from amazon for $105 and added a 32gb memory card for an extra $20 and the quality was just as just as good as my gopro.

Lanyards are a great idea, but if you hit a tree/branch/limb hard enough to rip it off your helmet - 9 times out of 10 it is going to damage the camera. Just ask Nathan M.! :D

I've ripped off 2 visors and I think the gopro would affect my vision. I'd definitely be interested in seeing how you have it mounted. :)
