Sometimes I hate...Sometimes I Love...


Recommended Posts

My Garmin Edge.

 

When it decides to lock up before a ride and before I'm going download the training. When you get a lame excuse for why it does so.

 

When it records my every move on a long ride in the middle of nowhere. Tells me that I climbed to the moon and my heart is still beating.

my suunto.

the heart rate belt's batteries lasts only ... 3 months, i think was the last time ... so i ride without a heartbeat for 6 months waiting for the T6's battery to go, so that i can have both replaced at the same time.

 

i don't use the heartrate for training; it's just pretty pictures (which i often dont have)

 

but i love the altitude readings - when training, i like to see it accumulating; during an event, i like to see what's done already; and when looking at my training log, i love to see that i've climbed 100 km that year :)

They can be so frustrating yet we still love them.
