Mike, do you want us to look around for some quality his and hers shopping carts? I'm sure we could get a couple of great cardboard boxes as well.


Anything to help out the homeless... :o)

Lol a guy on another forum is trying to unload a couple of GoPro HD Motorsports edition cameras. He made the mistake of buying one on eBay, then letting his 2 year old play on his phone (bought it via the smart phone). His 2 year old bought 5 more...

i was thinking of getting either a go pro hd hero 2 or a cylocomputer with gps. i went with the gps.

my smartphone just drains my batt so fast to be useful on rides.

the go pro could have been useful though when i got hit by a car. lol... >_<
