That event was awesome! by far the best event I have been to (not that is saying much) . you forgot we each go free pair of glider sunglasses. There were even prizes for teams that were last to finish. Very well organized.

Like I am sure I have said I don't actually own a Mac but I use Linux and the "wine" software is supposed to work pretty the same on mac as on Linux. But I will try help where I can.

https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/95832-transferring-from-polar-to-mac/page__view__findpost__p__1297251 Using wine works perfectly I don't own windows I haven't used windows in for ever. Install wine for mac then install the windows.exe on your mac machine it should work as well,

I am not sure if this will work on Mac but it works perfectly on Linux. Use wine http://www.winehq.org/ I found that the weblink works perfectly but the websync didn't at least for me. Give me a shout if you need a hand. If you are using websync it seems there might be an option http://www.polarusa.com/en/support/product_support?product=3130&category=FAQs&documenttitle=get&document=/gip/PKBStoGIP.nsf/c225742500419a8ac22567c400442981/c225742500419a8ac22576e7004af85e?OpenDocument

It has to I entered the argus heheh

Sunday I did my first +40km (it was 75km) ride EVER and it was the ride for sight race leaving from just around the corner from peddlers. I said to my self if I get a puncher there is no way on earth I am changing it and I will wait for the sweepers So sadly less then 2km into the race hadn't even gotten to OuKaap se weg and i get a flat not even a puncher but the valve on my tube just decided to die! Yes I as the moron changing their tier on the left hand side of the road, although most of you would have missed me because I assume you were in a group before "U" About half way through changing my tires the Olymic van stopped next to me and helped me the rest of the way(with a decent pump at least). So thanks guys absolutely great service if I was in that area I would defiantly come to your guys shop to give you some support! Oddly enough the sweeper van drove past me about 6 or 7km from the finish and almost forced me to get in.. My reply was are you insane I got this far I am damnwell finishing! PS Although technically I did the full distance, I missed the cut off time so didn't get an official time either way I am happy because longest ride ever.

It works for me. Also I think their reasoning for doing this was that people have microphones and this might have been before USB became popular standard and since it worked they continued to use it. I also think USB connection might have broken the water resistant factor because it would need a whole to plug it in. Also CS400 does not use Sonic link so giving instructions for that is pointless. Yes it is the built in mic you do not need to buy any thing extra.

Yip uses sonic link! Just tested and used it today 1) Download WebLINK (NOT websync) 2) Install it and run it. 3) Will ask for your model and username/password enter those details 4) You will then be given the option to upload your data... 5) On your CS200 device while in time mode press the right button until it shows Send Files Make sure your Mic on your PC is working first. Hope this helps.

Well I got my self an early Christmas present reading around people claim it works well (although via sound). OP busy playing with it will hopefully be able to help out when I work things out.

Thanks for clearing that up.

According to their docs it uses SonicLink? "CS200: In Time mode, press the Right button until CONNECT is displayed. Press the Middle button and select Receive DATA. Place the cycling computer less than 10 cm/ 4" from the loudspeaker and do not move it during the data transfer." Maybe there were different versions of the CS200? Good to know the SonicLink works well because I was rather scared to purchase it I think I am going to go the CS200 route because it is like much much cheaper and if I choose to upgrade later on i can.

Hi I went to look at this model today and found it uses some sort of audio upload via the PC's microphone. I work with computers but that just seems dodgy to me. I was going to buy this exact model but decided I should rather investigate how well the audio upload thing work. I guess you answered the question for me. I found http://www.polarusa.com/us-en/support/downloads?product=&category=Logos&documenttitle=How+to+Download+Logos+to+Polar+CS100%2C+CS200+and+CS300+Cycling+Computers&document=/gip/PEUS1kb-public.nsf/web_cat/85256F470048B0BCC225743A003DFD0E

+1 on the cleats thing. I think I got them to early I am kinda unfit and often when cycling up a hill I feel like I need to just put a foot down and don't have enough time/momentum to take them out so I fall over Either way par for the course, fitness will come! Good luck with your cycling mission.

I was looking at https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/92783-new-to-road-cycling-which-bike-advice-again/page__view__findpost__p__1260315 haven't gotten either yet but they seem like good value (from what I have heard) and under your price limit.
