I know they have similar things that you can attach to the car, to spy on how fast your kids are driving,
But I'd like to get a device to take on a bicycle trip, so friends/family can monitor the progress.
Is there something like that outside of ham aprs that could be used?
Unless the most simple way is an APRS tracker, and set up family on aprs.fi
What you think???
