GPS found on Table Mountain

Could this perhaps work to find the owner?

 

1. Create a new Strava Profile

2. Download all the rides on the Garmin to Strava

3. In Strava it should now show that you're been riding with 'NAME'

 

Or will Strava be too smart and say it is the same ride? In any case, well done for getting it back to the owner :-

1. You could use your own Strava account.

2. I don't know how Garmin & Garmin Connect works so can't confirm that it's that easy to just download the files.

3. Strava will allow this. It isn't smart enough to recognise that it's the same ride if it's from different accounts.

Good stuff man.

 

How do we put our name in it? Do we just rename it as a removable drive or is there actually a way of putting your name on it when you switch it on?

 

On my Rox 10, you can change the welcome greeting to your own name and details. On the Garmin I found, you can put your own name in the profile along with your age, etc.

 

In this case, the owner only put 'Dave', which didn't help too much as there are lots of Dave's around..

 

Incidentally, having my name on my home screen of my last Rox 10 didn't help, as the person who found it after I  dropped it decided it was a keeper...

Renaming mine to "I will find you, and i kill you" as soon as i get home then...

Same with my previous edge 520. Had my name and sell number on, but I guess it was 'founders keepers'...
