Right to the point....farkle acct is currently below zero and can not afford to buy Spot 2 for my IB5K ride next month. Is there anyone willing to lease theirs to me for 2 weeks? Must have tracking service so family can follow my ride. Although we cannot publicly share our tracks, the owner of the leased device may happen to know the password used. So if you're interested in helping out or watching from the sidelines, please send me a pm.

F*%# it! I just ordered one from GPSCity. I've got a month until the bill comes...By then the rally will be just a good memory. And I'll say it was well worth it.

BTW...They price matched some outfit in WA State so I got it for $118 and Spot is offering free tracking with std svc for a year only ($99). Once these are in place this weekend, I will be ready to go.

Thanks, Corey

Please send the dates of your travels to me via PM. I'm making a long-distance ride to Texas in August. If the dates do not conflict you may borrow my Spot 1.

EDIT: Looks like our trips are about the same time. Hopefully someone else can step up with an offer. It's as simple as adding a new Profile to your Spot account and setting him up with separate contact numbers (doesn't affect your profile).

Good luck with the ride!

If you have an android or Iphone.........this program is free. instamapper

 
On my iPhone there is a new app called the itrip by jeep. I haven't used it yet, but I've heard good things . It's free

 
Corey I have a spot 2 we could just ride together. :dribble:
Will you be able to keep up? j/k...you'll probably kick my ***. I've ridden like 1500 miles this summer so far. You've done double that last weekend or was that 2 weekends ago.

Sorry, no Iphone here...my work won't cover the 'fancy' phones.

Thanks for the ideas.
