Re: GPS for the wife
Problem with rural areas, is most GPS's like the Magellan Maestro will take you out of your way. Check with Consumer Reports on the best GPS systems out there. Also check with the local Bicycle club to see if anyone in their club uses one to ride with.
Magellan still shows I-355 up in Chi town as a field, even though 2 years ago the interchange was modified, during the time that the GPS software was still in pre-release. That is the biggest offender when it comes to stuff like this.
The even better solution, would be for her to have a PDA or iPhone with GPS, other then some other gadget in the car.
