My original post did not get posted due to server error and I lost my info, so trying to recall what I wrote. Most of you likely already have all of these items. I am just assembling it all in an easier to use format, even Joe Bass can do this I think I covered everything.
Purpose: Create a setup for any bike including bicycles that you can use an old Android phone or tablet to do it all. You can probably use this for skii/snowboarding too, just get the armband holder.

Supplies List:
- Android phone or tablet preferably something like a Samsung S2 or higher, an older Note would be perfect or a nice small tablet. I am using my old Samsung S3. Try to use an unlocked phone. This phone will serve as your roaming phone or could be used as a backup phone in the event your primary phone is damaged, lost, or stolen. This is added redundancy. Add a 32gb or larger micro sd to phone for music and videos. Remember you can add movies and ebook to use later at your hotel.
- Waterproof case for device - check Ebay- do not get the ones that screw together. It makes it harder to open the phone to access memory card, battery, sim card.
This case does the job. http://www.ebay.com/itm/311527579035?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
- GPS mount - Ebay, I ordered 2 of these as one states it has a thicker stem. Look for one that has 2 teeth to hold the phone, 2 teeth on top and 2 on the bottom = 4 teeth. See Youtube video here on how the mount should work. I will try to make a spiral instead of the S design he uses. You can also go with the RAM mount setup with the Xgrip ($60+ at Radio City). Or you can buy just the stem mount and it should attach to this GPS mount with the ball. http://www.ebay.com/itm/16202532799...49&var=460995394671&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IThttp://www.ebay.com/itm/16202532799...49&var=460995394671&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT Watch video to see the setup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0evkS4HwZE
- 3M or Scotch brand Surelock “velcro”. Use it on the phone’s case to secure on the mount, extra precaution. Use it to mount phone on bike when you want to use phone as a GoPro or dash camera. Get it at Home Depot or Staples in white/clear/black. Buy a larger roll on Amazon or Ebay.
- USB charger - bought on Ebay - dual charger and it has an on/off switch. I have not received it yet. http://www.ebay.com/itm/381570771661?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
- Battery -Ebay, you can order extra battery for your phone, cheap insurance. You can also order the large capacity battery that sticks out a bit, remember phone will be in another case. This way you don’t have to run the USB charger if you do not want to.
. - Bluetooth Headset - see my thread here http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforu...hone-Headset-Helmet-Intercom-Walkie-talkie-FM
