Not really, the GoPro with its little tripod handle is pretty small and fits perfectly into a jersey pocket. Here's how small it is, with a Rapha large waterproof case for comparison:
A lot of people on the photography/video forums love to slag GoPro for their "overpriced" and "buggy" action cameras, but a lot of them do not care for the fact that the GoPros are all waterproof without the need of additional bulky cases (which would make it uncomfortable to carry on a bike), and the stabilization on their latest models is excellent (in good light).

Thanks. I remember recently there was a race in Australia with that kind of heat wave going on down there too... and they had it worse because they're racing at maximum intensity.
