Fixed my Christmas present on today.
GoPro Silver Hero4
Not used one before, any recommendations for settings etc.
I have two more batteries and charger on order and a +10 sd card in.

I have a Go-Pro that I use on the bike, I have mine set at 720 and 30 GPs, 1080p gets you very large files sizes. I tried my camera on the top of my bucket (helmet) but found at the faster speeds it tended to drag my head back, causing severe neck ache forcing head forwards all the time. The Go-Pro has a big front profile and catches the wind a lot, I tried it on the right hand side of my helmet but found that my helmet blocked some of the kerbside view and again it caught the wind and caused a lot of buffering and wind noise.
I now have a sturdy handlebar clamp and shot video through the screen of the bike, I also purchased a skeleton housing that allows better sound recording and the camera is protected from wind, rain and stone chip behind the screen. Another option is a chest harness that you wear, good for mountain biking and running as well.

personally I wouldn't have anything attached to my helmet.
theres enough hard objects to hit if you come off without adding another.
handle bar or else where on the bike.

Stop looking at your camera and look where your going, you are heading right for that big red door!

I have gone from a very rounded helmet to one that is a little more elongated and even with that small difference I find that when I turn my head the wind blast is trying to twist it even further. So looking at the it look like a sail on the side and you will be constantly fighting the twist. IMHO it also looks silly.
Has anyone tried one strapped to the middle of the chest

You can use Sugru to mount it on the chin, i am going to try this i think. My SJCam feels like its dragging my head to the side. Not sure i'd get a good view from bars with the fairing, might need to stick to fairing.
