I also have a RAM mount on the handlebars with a bar where I can mount two GoPro's, one pointing at me and one pointing at the road in front of me. They are easiers to manage while riding.

There has to be a better way than manually pressing the buttons. Even using the remote is fraught with problems while you're riding. Ideally the cameras would be linked (bluetooth or something) to either a dedicated button on the handlebars (like repurposing the horn button for example) or to something like a voice command through an intercom. If I can get my phone - or even my watch - to make calls by voice command while I'm running it can't be that much of a stretch to get a GoPro to start and stop while I'm riding.
Having to stop every time I want to get the camera to start means that all that's recorded are the easy bits. I have so many photographs of US gas stations from our various trips there because they were the only places I could get the camera to work.
Anyone else got any GoPro workarounds ?
