I would like our team to be able to locate our bike on course via the internet. What tracking device are you guys using in BITD and Score? IRC, SPOT, ETC?

SCORE and BITD require IRC. Sometimes they work great!

Yeah, "SOMETIMES".

SCORE requires the IRC tracker thing but at the 500 there were some guys on bikes who only had a smaller IRC unit that was more like the old RallyTrack and substantially less expensive.

I'm not so sure BITD requires the IRC. At the last BITD event there were only a few ATVs and 2 bikes with the IRC tracker.

Easiest, least expensive answer - Spot.

I just turned on my Spot system for the first time today and I will be using it for the GW cycle 150 this weekend. I will let you know how I like it. The system itself was $80ish off ebay and the activation for one year was $130 that includes the public page that shows everyone where you are every 10 minutes.
