Go pro on Motorcycle Helments

I think the helmet mounted ones look dorky.

I do too. I haven't become quite paranoid enough to want to use one for protection (and I pretty much stay off highways and busy streets) to ride with one all the time. But when I take a ride that I think might have some nice sights, I use a chest mount. Which my wife thinks looks even more dorky.
 
Lucky guy here but a camera on his helmet would have made for an interesting show.

Yep, So does something magic happens at 200 hours. I get bored with flying. Gosh I hope not.

Not bored so much as relaxed. I'm still smiling and looking out the windows and I still enjoy flying, I haven't found a better way to get myself around the country that's for sure. Consider it like a 5 year marriage vs 3 weeks into the same relationship. In the beginning everything is fresh, new and exciting. After 5 years you still love her, you're still happy, you have a routine that you both know works well for the other and that keeps everything content and happy. Is there some boredom to be found? Yeah, but by that point you realize that anything 'exciting' in this stage of the relationship is most likely trouble at which point you would wish you were bored.

Serene is a better word for what happens in the course of a relationship with flying more so than bored. Serene isn't exciting, but often times it's better.

Or maybe it would have injured him worse. Here's a story about how a skier's helmet mounted GoPro might have caused his severe head injury:

Depends on the mount, if adhesive I don't believe that could cause weakness in a helmet. Has the helmet ever been dropped before?? Helmets are one times use items. Yes even if it is dropped, technically it should be replaced. I bet that doesn't happen often.
