Hiya
A newbie to the forum and audaxing.
Am riding LEL 2013 and not fancying the idea of using the route maps other than as backup.
Any advice on best means of using GPS ? I know nothing about how to get best use of the gpx files that the event site supplies?
Have ridden LEJOG in 7 days so reasonably comfortable with the distances and RAAM as a relay so comfortable with the varied riding timing, is just the navigation I'm concerned about.
Do car satnavs in a handlebar bag help for example ? Have a Garmin 705 but only ever use it for post ride data, so not clear if that's much use for navigation (small screen not ideal).
Any ideas really appreciated.
I'll be the one with the pink spinergy wheels !!!
