Keeping the Windmill Alive - Your last trip? – May 2013

In danger of losing your windmill?

Maybe you can share with us the last place your GPS took you and if you encountered any problems, or if you use it to seek out special places to go (like Thai Food, ice cream shoppes, etc.)

Anything to keep your windmill alive.

This thread will be closed on the last day of the month and a new one will be opened.

Coconino National Forest Motor Vehicle Use Map

[Updated 4/16/2014]

Greetings,

The 2012 discussion of the existence of (and need for) Motor Vehicle Use Maps has been discussed in the thread:

http://www.poi-factory.com/node/36274

The older thread discusses why the Forests are now coming up with Motor Vehicle Use maps rather than the old standard "all forest" maps.

A question for you Zumo users

I have recently become a scooter rider (a Honda Helix clone to match my lady friend's Helix) Both are 250 cc bikes. We have matching helmets with Bluetooth intercom capability (Sena SMH10). The bike to bike and telephone features work great. I have mounted our older Garmin GPS's, mine is a 760 and hers is a 350.

How old is your street view

I was looking at my address on GoogleMaps today using street view. I realized that I could see a pile of trash that would let me date the image to the spring of 2008 (some renovation work).

Is there anything unique to your street view that would let you date it?

If so, when was the shot taken?

Google Glass -- your car is the killer app

A story over in Wired that I think nails it--

Your car is the killer app for Google Glass -- not only for gps/nav, but extending into other aspects.
