Re: Insta360 OneX in Renault Clio Hybrid

The latest ones are about £450 but I picked up an original model for about £150 secondhand off ebay. You can see it with more conventional views here, (link below) where being able to rotate the view in the edit is really useful. All the footage used here was shot in one pass from the one camera. ht...

Insta360 OneX in Renault Clio Hybrid

No commentary or tips, etc., just trying out my Insta360 OneX camera in my Renault Clio E-Tech Hybrid while driving in one pedal (almost) mode. An interesting perspective on the dual carriageway clip where you can see the driver and the road ahead in one shot. It struggles a bit with the difference ...

Re: IAM members assessment

The simple fact is ex-plods are becoming rarer, more so on the 2 wheeled side. Fellowship IAM membership has 3 year re-testing, just the same as ROSPA. Unless you particularly want to gain a f1rst, talk to your local group who I am sure would be happy to take you out on assessment, probably for the ...

Re: Highway Code Review for cyclists, pedestrians and horse riders

Another ADI offers advice: https://youtu.be/X4-PoCp8GPE He's a sensible chap, partly because he has/had a VX220. He says in the video he thinks it was meant to only apply to T junctions.
