Right - need some advice as I'm totally lost on this topic.
Plans for this year : Cairngorms Loop, Fort Bill - Findhorn and BB 200, next year ? Highland Trail
Have never used a GPS and want to make sure I get the right thing.
Was seriously considering a GArmin GPS 62 s with full Uk 1:50 discoverer mapping which I can get for £389 with £50 cashback - is this what i should plop for.
Also anyone know any cheeky (i.e. cheap sources) for SPOT trackers ?

I use an Oregon 450 which does navigation, better than the Edge's, which do personal training and a bit of nav.
For spots,
Cactus Navigation,

Prob OK for short rides but my iphone currently lasts < 10 hrs per charge..

Cheapest for SPOTs seems to be eBay seller http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/cactusnavigat ... 4340.l2559. Prices vary day to day, but I got mine for something under £90..
