  1. Yup there should be 2, one for Garmap fitness and one for Garmap road map. The fitness one has a basic pic of your route while the road map one breaks it down to street level, even street number level using the search facility.
  2. Definately a mans toy, you can plot road route's with the enclosed garmap software to places and need not ask anyone for directions.
  3. Sportmans warehouse has it on special for R2999.00
  4. Good purchase you made, register on www.motionbased.com , you have the option there to view it in google earth. Usually i'm technically challenged when it comes to these devices, but this is very easy to use.
  5. Thats what the hubs for, broad spectrum from relationship, financial and legal issues, sometimes populated with cycling issues. scotty2007-11-01 03:20:55
  6. Unfortunately if the customer is wrong, legally he's . Must be said most banks will help out for customer relations. The OBS was receiving complaints from internet banking users who had transferred money to incorrect accounts and wanted the bank to assist them in recovering the money or to take responsibility for the loss. Users of the facility were not aware that the account number entered is not cross verified with the name of the account holder. If one therefore enters the wrong account number, the transfer will be made to that account (if it exists). The banks are then not permitted to merely debit the recipient's account without permission from the account holder. It is therefore up to the user who entered the wrong account number to recover the funds from the recipient. The banks were however advised to make it clear to users of the system that the account number would not be cross verified with the beneficiary's name. Most banks now have a warning on their internet pages advising the customer that the account number is not cross verified.
  7. Each bank has a system called Cheque Digit Verification (CDV) where the numbers of an account must follow a certain pattern i.e you cannot pay into an account with a number 123456789. The number patern and length is also unique to a bank. It can however sometimes occur that a number swop of 2 digits meet the that pattern e.g if the patern states increments of 9 then 98 will be accepted same as 89.
  8. As if. Johan Bornman is gonna rock up any moment now and tell you a whole differant story...
  9. I just ordered it from take2.co.za - R190-something incl shipping. The combination of online shopping' date=' impulse buying, and credit card is going to bankrupt me one of these days..... now where did I see that Superlight... [/quote'] Pretty comprehensive, they follow all types of maintenance from gear grip shifting, SRAM, Shimano. Between this and my handbook i can pretty much do most things without spending $$$ on course.
  10. Other than bling factor, not much in it.
  11. FF i have the Bycycling DVD and although i have not looked at much on it what i have seen looks looks good. I have also got the Zinn Art of MTB maintenance which is also quite good.

  13. If she waits 3 weeks she'll see them again, they usually at the 94.7 expo. Nice kit and lasts longer than some of the more expensive stuff.
