Okay now this may sound weird but I've always wanted to put a whiteboard on one of my bikes. Because of how I drive I often figure things out at the last minute or on the road and prefer to write them down on a piece of paper or in this case a whiteboard, so check out what I did. I got the Whiteboard myself ( the old kind with hard cardboard backing) the elastic is from an old ski goggle and on the one side of the loop for the string, that's just a nail with string taped on it to give that loop, and then you slice a hole in the other side. See what you think!

I get what your doing.
Many years ago, before GPSs when I was on a trip I would write RT#s and directions on my windshield with a China Marker. It was water proof and wiped right off at the end of the day.

I think I would get a second glovebox lid from someone who has the Kury cup holder, sand it smooth, and try to fit some of this on it.

Just a thought...

That could be handy...
I was on a run this weekend and kept having to stop and pull out my phone to make sure I had the highway numbers right :banghead:

That "ugly" Madstadt would be ideal for that......

I just saved that website. That product is cool. The wifey might like it for her home office. Thanks Steve. The video would have been better if the girls weren't so overdressed.

Some more options. Couple of holes in the corners and you can strap it to your thigh like a fighter jockey heading out to bomb those pesky isisisisisisis critters.

I used it many times to teach LEAN 6 Sigma classes when no whiteboard was available. That stuff works great on file cabinets, doors, dry wipe boards that have been 'permanently marked," etc.

You gave me a great idea...gonna use my kneeboard!

There was a thread I remember seeing several months ago about someone mounting the full wing nav system to a B. That would be the ticket, I don't really use the little display at this point anyway, putting a nav there would be perfect.

The display is useless and mostly washed out by the sun. I wouldn't mind it being gone or replaced by an LED HD display.
