Just wondering, does anyone on here use a SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger, and should I get one?
I have been toying with the idea of getting one of these gadgets for awhile, as I often ride solo, and into some fairly remote areas (hunting the ever elusive twisties). My big fear is that I'll end up dumping in an area with no cellphone coverage, or become incapacitated enough that I would be unable to use a cellphone. With one of these, help is a single button push away...
The link here is for the SPOT2, which is what I am considering getting. It has a USD $99.00 annual fee, and there are a few other 'bells and whistles' you can opt to get as well.
