If you’ve ever wondered about the value of a GPS tracker for adventure riding, here’s a story that will make it very clear. Every adventure rider should carry one. Maschine’s Nick Selleck tells what happened.
On the first of the recent TransTerra rides in south-east NSW (see issue #15), the Maschine support team got a phone call at 1.50pm from Tom, the son of one of the group’s riders. Tom said he’d received a text message from his dad, Steve Hamblyn, via his SPOT tracker saying, ‘I have broken down but I am fine. Have no phone service.’
