First ride of the year in the woods. First ride one the new bike. I’m still slow as shit man.
@mcnally
2 things:::
-Attach gps to bike
-Attach gopro(or similar) to front of bike
Other than that, looks like fun!
@lucifargundam I plan on the GoPro eventually. GPS in case of stolen bike? That’s not a bad idea. I may have to look into it. We have so many bikes though. I think roughly 10ish at any time.
@mcnally
at least if you had a gps on you and you ran into a tree at 20kph/mph and couldnt walk aftewards, you could be found. Or if you fell off a cliff due to loose soil on a bike path.
(this one is advertised for theft- i guess your wife can always argue 'in case nature decides to steal my husband, i can find him!')

As for your bike- some people use hidden RFID chips as 'markers' for their bikes. If they ever get stolen, scanning the RFID chip if/when you to go pick it up from a craigslist/ebay sale would show authorities that it really was yours.
(i think these are the right ones- not entirely sure)

@lucifargundam nice. I’ll check both of those out this evening. Thanks!
@lucifargundam thats a good point about getting lost. I’m kind of nuts about it. Like, before each ride I give my wife a map with the trailhead and plans marked, estimated time, etc. - but it might even make her more comfortable if I was findable otherwise too.
