Default GoPro mounting ideas?

What have you guys come up with for gopro mounts? I have been looking at some and there are some crazy cool ideas out there, just looking for some unique ideas for ways to mount it and best places

I have a contour but it can mount just like the GoPro minus teh chest mount. Which by the way, unless you are in a kayak busting down some class 5 rapids, don't ever use the chest mount. It looks like shit.

But I did a cool mount one time where I mounted it with the suction mount to the right of my headlight, on the front and as low as I could get it. The turns looked really cool. Same if you could find a way to mount it on the side so you can see the shocks working. One of my favorite views.

I only like helmet on mountain biking or dirt bike jumping.

Interesting; Pashnit's folks don't allow hotlinking, but they had no compunctions about hotlinking to my site

What you've got there is a fairly standard sort of setup, for shooting car video. You can expand your options if you can manage some sort of standard camera mount, because there are a lot of arms and tripods out there. My favourite is the "Fat Gecko" suction cup tripod. I use their single suction cup mount to hold one of my Replay XD1080 cameras in my car's back window.
