I put a couple of go-pro hero camera mounts on the bike, one facing forward and one facing rearward. I'm taking a laptop with me that should be powerful enough to play the hd video that camera records so we'll be able to do some trial and error with video recording.
Once I get some more software writting I hope to be able to embed maps like the one linked to below directly in the forum and blog posts.
This is the route Josh chose. I figured I'd post it here for posterity. The link probably won't parse right but that'll be another thing I address once I get back to coding in earnest.
