Great video, good on you commuting by bike in Auckland, braver man than me. The questionable/non-existant infrastructure in Auckland combined with the hills and traffic looks exhausting, especially for a commute longer than 30min. I feel like it would just be a matter of time till would get hit/doored I manage in Nelson but the commute is under 10min and bike lanes marginally better/more % coverage. Christchuch has the best I've seen for NZ at least

Thanks for your comments. 😀There’s definitely sections of this commute where you have to be careful. I find riding the same route all the times helps you become aware of dodgy bits. I’m shooting another video this week illustrating a commute to work utilising cyclepaths for the whole trip as another option. 👍

This has made me interested to try this in my city in midwest USA. I'm curious how you filmed this, not getting much wind sound on your camera.

@BikeDispatch 11 ай бұрын

You totally should. I follow a few cyclists is the USA doing similar videos and I think they’re neat. NY, California but not the midwest so highly recommend to do it😀 I use GoPro 10s with a chest mount for the front shot. I like to get arms and the handle bar in shot as it puts the ride in context with a familiar sort of look. The GoPros are average at sound recording so I record using an iPhone with a Rode Wireless Go lapel. I connect the socked microphone inside of clothing near my neck to reduce wind noise. In editing I match the GoPro audio with the iPhone audio and then cut out the camera footage leaving clean sound. I apply a bit if noise cancelling to reduce road noise. ( I did a bit too much on this video btw making it too boomy) Maybe I should do a video on this?🤣Good luck getting a video out! 🇳🇿

Great footage! And interesting to see how different the roads and bike infrastructure in the UK are. I commute to work here in Austin Texas... Our roads and infrastructure are... abysmal. lmao, plus Texas is ass. What camera do you use, bruv?

@BikeDispatch 11 ай бұрын

Hey thanks for the feedback. Our cycling infrastructure is slowly getting better. It'd be cool to see bike commuter vids around Austin. I use GoPro 10s and a chest mount for the front camera. I mainly use wide but switch to superview for BMX or trail rides just cause you're more upright and the angle is better. Cheers and good luck out there!

For rain, I have just accepted that I will get soaking wet. I hang my clothes to dry at work.

@BikeDispatch 11 ай бұрын

Good idea. I do the same.

I'm new here in Auckland what mtb you recommend for newbie like me, around $300 used bike? Thank you

Hi, well I’ not much of a MBiker. I prefer retro 90’s mountain bikes as i like to tinker with them and they’re cheap! ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mcxyo8SYuNvHZqc.html) Imo if you want to ride off-road then get double suspension with hydraulic brakes. Trek or Kona for example. If you want to commute get something lighter like a gravel bike. You could test out options by visiting a bike hub and picking up a cheap bike first. Good luck out there!🇳🇿🚴‍♀️
