Any magazines giving a GPS on letters page?

I won a Hotspur pen, for my bike-related limerick, in the eponymous comic back in 1966.
Thinking it through, that's probably not much use to you though, Simon.

Think it was Mountain Bike Rider, late 90's. I'd written in complaining about the effeminate sorts who were fitting suspension to their MTBs.

Thought it might be a bit more recent than that, but thanks for the reply.

Cycling plus used to give Bryton Rider away... but last time I looked they didn't even have a letters page.

Probably Razzle.

Most men need a sat nav to locate it anyway.

^^+1. My Oregon 600 (not cycling related gps, but general hiking/geocaching gps) just died on me a couple of months ago. I bought it in 2014, butI RTU'd it in to Garmin in the hopes it would get some sort of re-birth. It was dead, so they offered me a refurb unit (a non dead one they were able to fix) for less than 70 notes. OK my current unit is now a refurb second hand one, but it works. And it has a 1 year warranty.

A friend of mine has just said he thought you would have been age barred from Hotspur competitions by 1966, I said I didn't think so .

Wouldn't it just be easier to steal one?

Its the socket on the back... Had to bend a pin back... and its a bit tricky to get it to sync...I have to wiggle the lead....

Been like that with mine since day 1,I assumed it was part of the spec!.Some time ago,the back mount pegs broke and the whole thing is held on by advanced technology.in other words,blu-tak and elastic bands!!
