Lets see it in google maps eh?
Out of curiosity, how did you calculate the max/avg speed? Is that a product of the functionality of the device itself, or did you calculate it based on the track points it exported?

Thanks for the reminder Luke. I’d made the map and updated the post, but forgot to publish the correction. The GPS device actually records all of that information automatically, all I had to do was remember to stop/start it as I got in/left the car. I actually had three GPS devices (two Garmins and my Cingular 8525 and they were all very, very close to each other in terms of accuracy but the numbers above came from my 6 year old but trust Garmin GPS V.

Hey, not sure if you have access to the old Almost Live topic, and I couldn’t find a contact email address, so sorry for being off topic here…
Anyway, was interested in the Reunion (which I didn’t even know happened until after the fact!), which isn’t able to be downloaded on this computer?
So as it is, I live in Port Angeles, grew up by Port Townsend in Hadlock, and Almost Live was always a pasttime (only 23, so I really grew up on that show). I was hoping that you may be able to hit me with a link to all the shows, or at the very least email me and we can discuss the process of sharing.
Would love to hear from you about this, no where on the web seems to host or sell anything from the show except for King 5′s clips, all of which I watched pretty quickly! It was great and nostalgic, but now I thirst for more!
Please email me at delta.n9ne@gmail.com for further info, I’d love to get ahold of those classic episodes AND the reunion that I’ve never seen!
Thanks again…
