So it might be nice to be able to communicate amongst our caravans when driving around and getting lost in New England. Does anyone have some walkie talkies? When I was younger on the swim team we used to use them to communicate between cars and just generally BS the whole drive down and it was pretty fun. Nick and I were a little anxious when the van got stuck, you guys left, and we were incommunicado with 12 bikes in the van heading for the US border alone. It might have been nice to have some in that instance. If we can’t borrow some, it might be worth the investment for the team as they’re like less than $50 for a set and we could use them for years afterwards.
Why don’t you just use your cell phones? Surely 3-4 people have them which can be split, and cost isn’t much if you only use it when your lost, or waiting on someone.
Cells arent a really good option because if travelling long distance, charges can get pretty pricey, especially if phones are on roam, and when local, few people have unlimited local minutes. Walkie Talkies would allow easy communication btw cars close together and at events.
