Talk about late to a party!
The UCI is finally making some headway on bike mounted cameras...
This paragraph was recently published in a press release.

WORKING GROUP APPOINTED TO REVIEW USE OF GPS AND CAMERAS
“The use of GPS location systems and cameras is not authorised during races. However, this prohibition does not relate to GPS systems for personal use (when the data is not transmitted to the media, directeurs sportifs, organisers, etc.) which is currently tolerated, until further notice. The UCI does however consider that the future of the sport of cycling will involve the integration of new technology into the bicycle, in particular providing information on the riders’ location during races and on-board cameras. Consequently the UCI has set up a working group of experts in order to allow optimum decisions to be made on the application of this technology in competition in the interests of the sport of cycling.”
