January 7, 2010 at 3:35 pmIf the circle is a constant radius, the bike will not be a problem, the rear-facing cameraman can adjust for it. Remember when you ride abike that you can lean the bike way over while you yourself remain relatively upright. Im think the biggest problem is to find a shooter who is trusting enough to sit backwards on the bike with feet on some hub pegs and not worry himself about how to lean, trusting the guy in front to handle all of that. A fat-tire equipped “beach bike” with a reinforced platform over the back wheel, or a regular tandem bike with the back cranks or pedals removed, some foot pegs, and the seat reversed, and you have it.
