My New Dash
Hey Folks, If you let your wife smoke you can steal her Marlboro miles and get a GPS. Soon as I saw you could get a handlebar mount I knew I had a new toy

Jeez, another bike rider with a GPS! I thought I was the only one. I would almost bet money that I am the only one in Australia...
I have a Garmin eMap mounted to my Solo Softride with a HUGE RAM mount. Solid as anything. The silly little Garmin bike mount was a total waste of money.
I fnd them useful for the LONG rides - gives me somthing to do to stop the boredom. Very few times have I actually needed it. I mainly use it when I lead club rides myself - I plan the rides beforehand on the PC, then upload them to the GPS.

Looks like a vanity mirror to me.

I tried that kind of mirror once. Got a great shot of my crotch but not much else.

I just bought one of those mirrors this past week. They seem to be better at spotting your competition in a race situation, than cars in a pleasure ride. If I didn't have a wedgie pack on my seat post it would work quite well, especially when you'r in the drops.
It was just a waste of $15 for me!
O well, I guess someone has to be the first!
