When I travel, yes, I use a GPS BUT! I also have a map of every state that I am visiting and I consult the map along with using the GPS.

No. What little traveling I do is pre-planned.
I have previously mounted a GPS to my bike and didn't use it for much than telling me what the speed limit was.
Zumo 665 for me with BT connectivity to my Galaxy S4. I'm pretty well spoiled by it.
Yes, of course, when traveling to parts unfamiliar. Safer than taping a map to your tank, which is what I used to do.
I use a Garmin Nuvi but rarely for directions. I usually keep it on the information screen telling me miles I have been and how far to my destination. I also like to see average speed moving and over all. It is a good record keeper for a road trip.

Not for me on the bike....Too many distractions now with "dumb ass" drivers looking at their car GPS, talking on cell phones or texting while driving......It is good for some, but not this guy....Regards....
Amen on your post. I am GPS Challenged. That is what maps and the sun is for. I don't need no stinking GPS at night, that's what drinking is designed for. Can I get an Amen brothers and sisters?Originally Posted by opas ride

If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.
Yep, What he said. I have an ancient Garmin 2610 that refuses to die. It does the job.When I travel, yes, I use a GPS BUT! I also have a map of every state that I am visiting and I consult the map along with using the GPS.
I always have a good idea of the roads I want to use on a road trip and rarely use it to determine my route.
That being said, my gps has taken me on great roads in my own state that I wouldn't have ridden.

I don't buy a bike to impress other people, just me !!
