For today's Oregon Randonneurs' Hillsboro Dallas 200k, I mounted a micro camera on my handlebars and set it to take a still every 60 seconds. It took 95 photos before the battery died, about 60 of which were close butt shots of my riding partners. Proof of how much time I spent drafting.

Weather was great for February; 45 at the start, overcast most of the day but the sun popped out a few times. We had a slight tailwind out the southbound leg of this out-and-back, and a headwind back.

Ride time was 9:01 with about an hour of stop time.

My rear shifter was a little balky, probably needs to be cleaned and lubed.
