If you've read my work on RideApart, you likely know how a Garmin inReach Mini 2 once saved my life. If you haven't, go read the story here. But even before the little satellite communicator helped me stave off frozen death, it was part of my essential gear. I never left the safe confines of civilization without it strapped to my pack.
Since then, however, I've become a dedicated apostle, spreading the good word whenever and wherever I can, telling people of the good it can do, and how it can keep you from an early grave. And that's without Garmin ever giving me a dime to promote the technology.
Though we'll take it if Garmin ever wants to partner with us, hint, hint, cough, cough.
