I went to see the windmills

I know they're not windmills, but hey I like the word

I took the car out yesterday, didn't have anywhere to go really so I just headed towards Halifax and the green parts of Yorkshire.



I took my mobile with me and used that RaceChrono program that was mention on this forum and just set it to datalogging, when I got home I exported the data to a .KMZ file (Google Earth) and imported that. Nice program innit




P.S. Some of these country roads are bumpy as chuff!

ah, awesome! wonder if my phone will do that export thing. it has gps, and a tracker program to show where you've been, but that doesn't have a map. must try it later

The original thread, which I thank you so much for is located HERE.

My phone is a Nokia 5800, cracking little phone.

I'm going to see some more windmills on Tuesday, I'm off to Skegness where there is an offshore windfarm. I'll post a pic from there too
