    I sent some of this in an email a bit ago. The primary users of SPOT is the Rider and family. A close 2nd are Rally staff. As I learned in the 2011 IBR, SPOT is a good thing. It soothes anxiety on the homefront, can ease the need to call home when on the clock and takes care of relaying your...
