GPS on the bike?

[guest40]

I dont know about the gimbled compass in a coracle bit, My misses needs one WALKING to the shops!

the only time i used a gps on me bike, i had a tank bag loaded up, so shoved the gps inside the waterproof clear top ..... worked ok on a 500 mile round trip

wonder if boyd is going to use one on the IB rally?

Could you see the satnav O.K. in the top of the tank bag?Not too far from your line of vision when riding or invisible in bright sunlight? I have a Navman and was going to try this but have not got around to it yet.

I recon it's only the people that haven't tried a GPS that are doubtful with them. i always used to use maps and have collected them from wherever I might be, but you end up stopping a lot if you are exploring just to check the map especially if you use large scale maps as I do. I use the GPSD in conjunction with maps and find it so much easier to explore and keep an eye on the road. I havent found a tank bag yet that will allow you to ride and occasionally check your progress.
I think that this chap has just about goty it right!!!!!!!

I reckon he irons his (Hondastyle) Y fronts, probably doesn't ride in the rain, can't remember the last time he went more than 100 miles from home and has to check the gps track to tell you what beauty spots he passed

He's mean to his teddy though. How would you like a RAM mount shoved in there
