Map Boards


When Graham and I did the Lakes Polaris a couple of years ago we didn't bother with a map board, to b honest I'd always thought they looked a bit daft and me being more style conscious then practical opted not to bother. However, when we got to the registration I noticed that almost every rider or a least team had one. So not to be out done we made a swift purchase from the Polaris Apparel stand and Bob's you Uncle. I paid about £15 and it was crap, far too small. The only good thing about it was the re-usable cable ties that came with it, which I still use to this day...

Time has moved on and I've gone through 3 map boards, still using those cable ties mind. Here is my latest creation, bit of a highbred solution this one, map on top (old school style) but don't look now, GPS underneath, nice.
