Self timer won't work for sequences. The only thing I can think of is using a timer long exposure with strobe flash in the dark so that the flash provides multiple exposure. You'd need an SB-800, or similar, as the SB-600 doesn't do strobe, and it'd be difficult to get a strobe effect with enough light.

You'd be better to pay a local peasant to come along and hold down the shutter release.

I just teach my friends the basics of how to work my camera and set it up for them. I go by the whole "If I am shooting pictures for you all the time the least you could do was take a few of me"

Get some tape and a coin and stick one side on with teh coin in the middle and just as you ride stick the other side down. I know it sounds stuiped but my mate tried it
