  1. Drive to Gordon's Bay, park near Bikini Beach, ride from there....
  2. GPS satellites broadcast their signals in space with a certain accuracy, but what you receive depends on additional factors, including satellite geometry, signal blockage, atmospheric conditions, and receiver design features/quality. Commercial devices usually one use a single frequency for GPS, military and more expensive high end devices use more than one frequency. In the 90's, the GPS signal was slightly scrambled for military purposes but this system as been dropped and the accuracy for the daily global average user range error (URE) is reported to be about ≤2.0 m (6.6 ft.), with 95% probability...atmospheric conditions and other factors blunt the accuracy daily, you will only get better accuracy by the use of a fixed base station and triangulation.
  3. So sorry to hear, RIP Cois, you shared your suffering with such humility, strength to you Reinet....
  4. My 2c... 4 my ears... Jabra 75T, great fit (insert and twist), water proof, good base and volume, ANC OK and "pass through" does work, operated by physical button push, functions different between left and right ear.......BUT, I have had issues with 2 x new pairs...first set, case would not charge, returned, second set, buds would not charge, returned. Finally got a set that worked. Used for commuting on cycle path. Galaxy Buds.....try to get the Buds + version...these come with a changeable fitting "ring" which improves fit, (insert and twist), the newer versions don't have this. Comfortable for long wear, ANC is "OK", touch control which is OK with gloves and big bonus is functions are same for both right and left ear bud, so you can use one side until it is flat then use the other side while the flat one recharges...(I use these for office work online). Case can be wireless charged. Sweat proof. Base and volume a bit on the light side. Both can connect to 2 devices at once (of course you can only listen to one device at a time!) Charge time is short, use time is long. Fit of the Jabra is better for action sports. lekka. Both have

Great knobs, bad sidewall...mmm had me some Butchers like that, they don't like to be under-inflated and brand new and two weeks of riding the F-place, they looked exactly like that..had to ditch them with perfectly good tread cause they started rolling and burping....looked good hanging outside the chalet window when we left!
