    BEELINE MOTO

    Saw this little "navigation " unit on FB ,  is it available locally ?  Know who stocks it ? and what the price is?  Seems to be a nice bit of kit , not a gps  , but navigation at a glance , with a arrow directing one . Its small , so very easy to mount .  Works of the cell phone.

    BUG SPLATTER

    Getting them off  after the ride is not really the problem , I was hoping for some magic suggestion that would prevent them from sticking around after they have been smashed against the pannier or screen via  their own rectum :imaposer:
