I think the whole biking with cameras stuff is vastly underrated when it comes to the amount of effort involved. Those who are making a decent living off YT are treating it like a full time job, which it almost is, apart from doing the bit you are filming, which is what the followers are there to see, not to admire your editing skills. Although the good editors do get great comments about their production values.
Itchyboots had to cut down the number of videos she as putting out this season from three to two as it was grinding her into the ground. Most other 'pro' YT'ers use professional editors at least for some of their stuff and the quality reflects that but if they are not from the genre they are editing then sometimes the content suffers as they don't understand the nuances involved.
I think two cameras makes for a more interesting video and three is the bees knees. Of course, when you have one on the helmet filming what you see, one on the bars filming you, a 360 one doing dizzying stuff, a stick cam for those awesome 'Watch me fall off now' shots and then a drone thrown in for good measure, then you are talking loads of money and even more loads of time editing.
I like the stuff you are putting out currently Matt.
