I'd like to go, but will need to scrounge a lift.

- the odd burst at 600mph+ always impresses people

That'll be the Rego at work!

Cheers Nestle Rob those stats make interesting reading

My guesstimate at the end of the ride was about 12 miles

And if it's only a few feet out i don't think thats too bad

Do GPS gadgets still get confused by trees etc?

Also i now know why i was out of breath - that's not a bad average speed given we stopped for puncture and there are about 10 gates

Shall we start a new thread for this weeks travel arrangements

Hi Paul

I found my car eventually in a big hole, apparently the altimeter works to +/- 25ft accuracy. Although I do like the sound of +600mph!!

Mark, the GPS doesn't seem to get too confused in trees. It worked pretty well in Dalby when i was last there. There is a speed/distance sensor (and cadence) included with it, i just didn't see the point on a full sus as it mounts to the crank arm and chain stay.

Don't think I can make Wed this week

"Do GPS gadgets still get confused by trees etc?"

The Garmin Edge does a bit, but generally it'll just autopause until it gets the signal back. If you have the speed/cadence sensor it doesn't autopause but will simply leave a gap where it knows you're moving but isn't sure where until it regains a signal! I only use it on the road as a glorified bike computer (useful for the data save'n'download capability) - I'm not sure how trees would affect the use for navigation.

i'm hopeing to get out again this weds - is it 7 o'clock again ?

usual place ?
