    Hi, Does anyone have any good suggestions for cheap 2-way radios that work well. Me and a mate want to do a bit more long distance and it would be good to have some communication as we're riding along. I found a cheapish set on maplins (around £50) but wondered if anyone had used any others? Cheers
