Hope I've done this entry correctly.

2 days ago Marhleet posted that the 1st DHL box had arrived from the US. It contained two 20/20 VholdRs & one STARNEX CamBall as well as all the spare batteries, chargers and other associated lovely goodies. Today the second box from DHL arrived.

The 20/20 Contour HD has arrived & my Sony GPS Camera thingy also. Yippee.

Hi All

I am loking for opinions on the best BUDGET option for a Bar mounted light to be used at The Scott 24 at Stromlo . I have a great helmet light , Cygolite Triden X which is great for sniggle but not quite good enough for fast fireroad ....or dodgey eyes . I am not looking to flash fry native animals , would be a great bonus but not necessary, but be able to do double night laps without going cross eyed . Battery life , cost , brightness , charge time and availability are all improtant ,1700 lumens aint ...

Thanks

Wayne

i have been trying to download the trail maps from NOBMOB to a garmin gps. the KML files open perfectly fine in Google Earth however i have been unable to convert these files to a .gpx or .crs file. i think the issue is that the .kml files that come directly from the website have embedded http:// links to other data files. google earth seems happy to dynamically pull these links in however all of the conversion utilities that i can find just port the "http://blahblahblah" link and thus not the base coordinate data.

help?

Flynny:

Now for something completely non NPWS. Just got back from a lap of Lidsdale. any one know who to get an edge 305 to upload the course to the new garmin connect using Ubuntu?

gpsbabel is your friend. Install it and do something like:

Then manually upload the out.tcx file. Haven't tried this personally but it should work.
