Arch is on wikipedia...almost...

[magnatom]

I was doing a bit of websearching about helmet cameras, and I came across this wikipedia page. Nothing unusual there. But if you look at the second reference on the page it takes us to an article about our very own Arch!

Once you make it onto wikipedia you're famous, aren't you?

Both the second and third links point to the same article. Does that make her doubly famous?

 

[marinyork]

I edited our schools page to say a mate of mine competed in the European table tennis championships, he's been getting asked about it ever since

Watch it!

Well, goodness, fame indeed! A bit ironic s I haven't worn the thing for months (along with my helmet!)

I am temped by one of thoe dinky Muvi things though, so it's on the wishlist, under a set of real Catrike sidepods, a netbook and a 6 month tour of Northern Europe....

Fame is a burden I bear as well as I can. I've been a cover model too you know...

Not this time. Just dreaming of some new helmet camera kit. It's an unrealistic dream unfortunately...

Arch,

I love the cover. They even managed to photoshop in some motion blur to make it look as if you were traveling fast....

Some people were famous before Wikipedia

Wearing helmet cameras is also proving popular with cyclists as a safety aid as it allows cyclists to record their journeys and to record any incidents from their point of view. This recording can be used in a court as evidence. [2]

In Glasgow, Magnatom is the most famous advocate of helmet cameras and regularly appears on television and Youtube.[3]

In 2006, a British cyclist was convicted of abusing traffic wardens, using evidence from a helmet camera. [4]
