    Realized I never posted the final rides I did with Tom and Ritch. I miss those guys and miss Guangdong Enduro, it was a lot of fun.

    Re: We're back...more Guangdong enduro

    I've been using the Contour+, which has now been replaced by the Contour+2. The 170º wide angle gives a lot of view, but it does seem to flatten things out. I have it set on the "Action HD" setting...
