Looks like i'm going to have to give this a miss.
I just received a start date of Monday the 25th.


At least it's a job in the bike trade

Thanks Andy for the offer of a lift, would have been a good weekend.

I am interested in this one. Jon, if you want a lift I could pick you up from junction 32 on the A14. Andy Andy that would be vaguely exciting! I'm not far from there at all. However, i had a job interview today so will have to let you know. I think they may want me to start ASAP. Just hope i don't...

I'd love to join you guys, but it's a £90 return ticket from Cambs.

So i went a lightly different route.

managed to get a pristine dakota 20 with full UK 1:50 maps.

i best get some practice using the thing.

Thanks for the suggestion s8tannorm, the dakota looks like a much nicer unit to use and the mapping will always come in useful.

Thanks for all the info guys.
I will go for the etrex 20 and will try a hard mount with added safety lanyard.

arrrrghh not long now!

Hi All, Looking forward to my first BB200. Just looking into gps devices. Would a etrex 10(£50 used) do the job? or, do i need to pay the extra for a 20(£90 Used)? or, is there a different range i should be looking at? Any info about this or anything else you guy's think i should know, would be vagu...

Anyone travelling from the Cambridge area?
