With Biker Babe in charge (always a bad idea) of navigation on the scooter,I have decided it is time for some reliable help.
I have had it with her directions ALWAYS leading us to the closest All You Can Eat Buffet.
Ordered a Garmin Zumo 550 yesterday. This sucker does it all.
Doing the trace on Fed-Ex,it is on the truck in Dallas for delivery.!
