    Default Off for a Sunday Drive

    Here's my route;

    Rt.101 West to Rt. 31 South to Old Wilton Rd(Right) to Temple
    Rd, (Right),becomes Rt 45 North to Rt 101 ,Cross Rt 101 , Right
    onto Webster Hwy about 1/2 Mile then Left onto North Rd., becomes
    Old Temple Rd.W, Left onto Rt 31 N Forest Rd.to Greenfield then right
    onto Francestown Rd. Rt 136 to Francestown,becomes Greenfield
    Rd.In Francestown take Right onto New Boston Rd.becomes
    Francestown Rd., merge Right with High St. South then Left onto Rt
    13 River Rd,Straight onto Meetinghouse Rd. then Left onto Bedford
    Rd.Stay on Bedford Rd taking a right at the stop at Christy to stay on
    Bedford Rd. Right onto Chestnut Hill Rd.Right onto Horace Greeley
    Rd. to Rt 101 right to Milford.

    I'll take some pics of the scenic countryside in New Hampshire.

    You can look it up on a map program and see the course. Its all two lane blacktop thru old rustic densely wooded countryside with lots of fun turns ,hills and variegated scenery like streams,lakes,ponds and all manner of trees and the ubiquitous stone walls from centuries ago.

    I like the lip on your wheels. I think New Hampshire is perfect for a sunday drive. Have fun and make sure to stop and take lots of pics!

    Did you have the cam on some fitted holder? I took a few vids but they were unwatchable , far too shakey.My cam has a threaded input on the base, if i could find something to fit on the dash or windshiled i'd be set. Your car sounds healthy!I'll try and get up and enjoy those roads more for you

    Cheers
    Yea, when my old man moved away, he left a few old bits of his photography gear in the loft (nothing too decent though lol)
    This is what I used:
    Its like a little G-clamp, with a swivel head on a little arm, and a screw mount on the end..
    Pretty funky really, although I've had to mount it where the centre dash vent is, also had to put a piece of wood the 'tray' side, to stop it crushing the dash.
    Only other place I could find was clipped to the open sunroof - but wind noise is an issue at anythong more than 15mph, cant hear anything else
