Cycling in Japan: Minami Machida, Sakai River, Fujisawa & Enoshima 4K
Cycling in Yokohama and beyond — from Minami Machida Grandberry Mall, along the Sakai River to Fujisawa, then on to Enoshima. This was my first ride video, so feedback is very welcome. I’ll add commentary next time.
Gear used on this ride
GoPro HERO10 Black
My main action camera for cycling videos. Reliable 4K performance, excellent stabilisation, and still more than powerful enough for POV ride footage.
View on AmazonGoPro Magnetic Swivel Clip
A surprisingly useful mount. I use this for quick attachment to bags, clothing, and temporary positions when scouting angles.
View on AmazonGoPro Media Mod (with built-in wind shield)
Essential for cycling footage. The built-in wind protection dramatically improves audio quality, especially at speed or in exposed coastal areas.
View on AmazonSanDisk Extreme microSDXC Card (UHS-I U3 V30)
Fast, reliable storage for 4K recording. I don’t experiment with cheap cards — dropped frames or corrupted footage aren’t worth the risk.

- 4K at 60fps

Bike: Bianchi Infinito XE — still absolutely loving it.
