VB is like the old woman at the fruit stall feeling up my soft fruit with those big rough hands and complaining about the price only to buy it all from the stall next door.

It is yours for 70 golden nuggets.

Is this the same bag that was used as evidence in your banning order that saw you unable to be within 300 feet of any primary school ?

It was 1 of 2 bags that I had to use with your girlfriend ;)

On second thoughts I'd rather not sink to your level.

Edit: Sent you an email, since I couldn't actually find anything that says 'private message'.

Click on the name of the person you want to PM, and a drop down list appears, private message is one of the options.

I think that you don't see it because you have to have 5 posts or something, since someone spammed people via privmsg.

EDIT: Here's the thread about privmsg restrictions: http://www.londonfgss.com/thread4860.html

Bought a Satmap last week but not had much of a chance to use it and waiting for a replacement bike mount as the bloody thing rattles about. Will post up a report as soon as I have used it - looks very impressive though

I have a brand new Garmin 205 going spare.

I only used it on this years London to Brighton - my bike (cranks/BB) died a couple of days later and my Garmin has been back in the box since.

My favorite thing about it is the ability to connect your 205 to your Mac or PC (comes with a USB lead) and upload your latest adventure to the Garmin online website data analyzer thingy - but the good bit is you can then save off a KML file (or KMZ file) and then download this back to your Mac/PC and open it in Google Earth so you can see your days cycling in Google Earth !!!!

Whats a KML or KMZ file?

Brilliant, far too much information !

Restart OS X / Vista / the internet page you are on / the software you are using etc etc

Then reload it (or uploaded it) from the CD / DVD / internet / hard drive / device.

Do some other stuff.

Log in, log out, log off.

Press some buttons.

Put it on a thing (or in a thing) and then do it and to check it is something or the original (put it in).

you need to take the old one out and swap it for the previous one without the bit at the top.

from playing with files on my garmin 705 i can tell you that kmz is something to do with garmin saying Kiss My arZe. Never attempt to make a google map/earth route, then export the kmz file to your Garmin device AND expect it to follow the route - if you do you will end up in the middle of the M23, in the rain - if, say, you were planning a trip to brighton along quiet country roads, with a bunch of club mates who were expecting you to sort the route and were happy to go on about how crap the expensive Garmin was, as we dodged traffic on main roads - and keep going on about it now, months and months later.

The 705 is very much a retrospective device - in an "oh look where we went" kinda way - ie bugger all like a device to guide you to where you want to go.

This resulted in a lot of heat. I think I may have done something wrong.

Thanks. Should I use the box in the corner of the room or the middle?

so i've been playing about with the iMapMyRide application for my iphone, mainly when running rather than on the bike, seemed like a good idea but the accuracy is all over the place, seems to add an extra mile for every ten it records.

Anyone else used it?
