Looks like some great stuff! Check out the links to jobs she made for IBR riders.

I've been riding for 11+ years and I've logged a lot of miles (more that 150K, so far). I've used a lot of different bits of equipment and I've seen some really poorly designed stuff sold to motorcyclists. I've seen some amazing ideas as well.

Wow, a whole 150K in just 11 years! She must be a really experienced rider, and know everything about tank bags.
How many miles did Nancy ride last year? 30K, that would be 330K in 11 years. I have 100K in the last 4.5 years, maybe I can make 150K in 11 years.
Sorry, I am not that impressed with her site, or her bags, and if her customer service is that poor, well trifecta!

I have a little Tom-Tom that I sometimes throw in the map pocket and it's OK. [good at night when I can actually see it]. I'm thinking about getting a Garmin 2610 since there are some good deals floating around. I don't like any of the hard mount arrangements I seen. My thinking is that since I only really want the GPS for trips, and I'll have the tank bag on anyway, maybe I can rig something up that looks and works acceptably. I was thinking about taking the "extra" piece of the tank bag, the expansion piece, and maybe putting some type of stiffener in the top of it and using a Ram mount "bolted" through the top of the bag. Then I could just zip this whole piece on when I want to use the GPS and unzip it and toss it in a sidecase for security. Anyone tried this?

Poor introduction yes, I agree. But one thing doesn't have to do with the other. Making a CUSTOM bag, she uses someones ideas and manufactuers it into a bag. Miles she may or may not have ridden means nada.
I throw my pistol in my bag often, so she would know how I would like to carry it? Nah, I would have to tell her what I want the bag to do.
Take a look at the picture gallery and the YEARS and MILES of IBR LDR people who use her stuff, that has to be a testament to something good.
Give her bad specs, the one could assume she would make a bad bag. Crap in, crap out.
Stuff looks great and the auxiliary fuel tank bags are a great idea as well.
Doesn't take miles of riding to see thats a cool idea.

That might be tough with a 2610 - the 2610 doesn't have a battery, so it has to be wired all the time.
If you get a locking mount you don't have to worry about security.
