While we rely on Spotwalla and the satellites to prove our rides it could cause grief. I purchased a Garmin Explorer Plus last year knowing I was going to be out of cellphone range in Canada. It worked perfectly and now I use both Garmin inReach and the Bubbler app on my phone.
I was in the car going to Las Vegas in January. Strange the news had announced that the GPS would be jammed in Florida a couple of weeks later, hmm I wonder. The link shows the inReach track sent to Spotwalla from Garmin. Interesting enough the Bubble app on my phone showed the proper routing. Before anybody says anything this was not a Spotwalla problem this is what Garmin sent.

Just another reason to make sure all the receipts are kept and documented. Had I been on a ride, my photos, receipts, and the odometer would have been the only thing to save it. Haven't had the glitch with the Explorer Plus since but definitely strange.
