The video cameras always make it look worse(better) than if you were there. I think it's the limited information from the camera angle that triggers the jitters. The eye sees things differently.

Not too shabby at all. :thumbup:

Q1? Do those double yellows mean the same as they do here?

Q2? Any idea what the 2nd bike (with the camera) is?
