GPS wanted - pref handheld Garmin

Nothing special - just a basic etrex will do. Has anyone upgraded and can't be bothered to put the other one on ebay?

I'm in Salisbury, Wiltshire, or the UK HUBB meeting in Ripley this July. Light blue Lada Samara - you won't miss it.

Etrex

Hey mate,
I've got a Garmin Etrex for you if you want it, it's the yellow handheld version, very robust and easy to use and set up for lat/long or MGRS etc. The basic of basic GPS's.
I've also got a Garmin 12CX, (colour screen upgrade to the 12XL used by the military) although it could do with a service as switches off with bumps if you put it on the dash or front of the bike but good for the pocket. it's a safety cut-off inside. Servicing is available with Garmin.
Both of them take AA batteries have worked well for me here in Iraq, a lot of it in monotonous area with no features to map read off so they were invaluable, Yes and lazy...... to any ex-squaddies out there LOL!!
I've upgraded to the Garmin 60Csx, the dogs in my opinion but not cheap!
Anyhow, give me an offer for either or both..? I'm back on Tuesday from Iraq and can post anywhere in the UK.
I've uploaded a picture and it should be on, hope so!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
