If you need to mount your etrex there are a couple of options. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_sg?url=n...amp;x=0&y=0 If you're out of room on your handlebars try this nifty gadget... http://www.amazon.com/Topeak-TBX01-The-Bar...f=cm_cr_pr_pb_t I have resorted to clipping my etrex onto my camelbak due to the unit turning off on bumpy terrain when on my handlebars. Good luck & have a blast! ~bri

I've used my etrex legend for 5 years now on my mountain bike and for the past year I have had to resort to clipping it to my camelback due to constantly turning off with bumps. I fought it for a while, putting shims made of inner tube strips in between the gaps of the battery cover. This worked for a while, or maybe I just thought it did. Anyhow I miss seeing my stats in front of me during my rides, but at least I have my data to review afterwards. I'm really digging the "trail.motionbased" website for reliving my rides! You have to checkout the "dot race" where you can enter your ride from different dates and see a race against yourself. Cheers! cruzbike

I just received DeLorme 4.0 Great Lakes region from E-bay. I'm still exploring the program, but it seems to be just what I was looking for. bri t o Dios Te Bendiga!

I have a question about topo map software. I mountain bike, fish, camp, etc. outdoorsy stuff. The Garmin Software is o.k. for street surfing, but I tend to avoid pavement on my outings and Mapsource doesn't even show rivers & creeks, which I come across quite often. I want to get a topo software, but @ $100 a "pop" average I'd like to get one that best fits my needs. Any helpful suggestions? Gracias! bri d Dios Te Bendiga!

I just received my etrex legend one week ago and have been having a blast geocaching with my two sons (5yrs & 7yrs). I want to expand my mapablity with some mapsource software (I think Roads&Rec.). Here's my question...I know that there will be roads & o ther details that don't show up on the software, but will my existing basemap still be there when I upload the mapsource stuff to my gps? Or does mapsource become the base map? Thanks, bri (aka bcruzbike@yahoo.com)a s Dios Te Bendiga!
