How to set textView when two items have been selected by using two spinners?

In my app I am using two spinners, so for the first spinner I select, lets say, village A and the second spinner village B. Then I would like to display the distance and time it would take between those selected values:

Here is my code:

Spinner spin1=(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
        Spinner spin2=(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner2);
        ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter1= ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.start_location, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
        ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter2= ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.end_location, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
        adapter1.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        adapter2.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        spin1.setAdapter(adapter1);
        spin2.setAdapter(adapter2);
}

    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent,
            View view, int pos, long id) {
        if (spin1.equals("Village A")) {
            if (spin2.equals("Village B")) {
                start.setText("60 Miles");
                time.setText("3 Hours");

            } else if (spin2.equals("Village A")) {
                //Etc...
            }
        } else if (spin1.equals("Village C")) {

        }
            //Etc...
        }
  public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
  // Do nothing.
 }

  }

And:

<string-array name="start_location">
    <item>Village A</item>
    <item>Village B</item>
    <item>Village C</item>
</string-array>

<string-array name="end_location">
    <item>Village A</item>
    <item>Village B</item>
    <item>Village C</item>
</string-array>

Sorry if it is a stupid question, but is the first time working with spinners. Thank you in advance.

You should provide OnItemSelectedListener to each of the spinners and then you can override onItemSelected method and write your own logic

spin1.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

            @Override
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1,
                    int pos, long id) {

                //Your logic
            }

            @Override
            public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub

            }
        });

Similarly you can write for another spinner spin2
