Re: The Cycling Thread
I've owned my 800 since June 2011 and have never once used the ability to map a ride 'on the fly'.

Re: The Cycling Thread
I hate it when this happens! Email from Amazon with my Garmin 500 £30 cheaper than I paid.... and I thought I had a good deal! If anyone is thinking of a 500, this is a new unit for the sort of money second hand ones are going for on Ebay.

Re: The Cycling Thread
Thats the kind of thing that happens to me...
The GP4000s' on the Look are finished the rears nearly down to the wear markers and I keep picking up front and rear punctures. So time for replacement. Gone for something different this time. Vittoria Open Corsa CX Pave ( yes I know what a Tart ) ordered them yesterday get an email from Wiggle today "30% off tyres sale" I was annoyed until I realised that the Pave's werent in the sale ! On another matters - this week is hill training week...

Re: The Cycling Thread
I'm getting closer to been able to complete the Cat 4 on my commute using the top ring only.
If I cant do it by the end of May I'll be disapointed./ |
