duanelr Posted April 28, 2019 Share Picked up a garmin edge lying in the tall grass in the parking area during the redhub triathlon (28 April). If it's yours identify the model number and maybe a ride or two in the memory so I can return it to it's rightful owner. I have the device with me Moreleta Park / Kya Sands areas.

Butcher Posted April 30, 2019 Share Some of those rides still in memory will probably stop/start at the owners residence?Picked up a garmin edge lying in the tall grass in the parking area during the redhub triathlon (28 April).

Long Wheel Base Posted April 30, 2019 Share On my edge 520 I have the option to put my name and details into it. Have you checked if this one has details loaded? It's in the settings somewhere, I can look later and get exact location if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duanelr Posted April 30, 2019 Share unfortunately this particular device can only show time, distance , ave speed in the history.Can't see where a ride was stopped / started. also can't upload to strava since I use a suunto and don't have correct usb cable etc. I imagine there will also be account details that i need? also no user info programmed into the unit either. Last resort is to contact Garmin as suggested. Let's hope the owner sees the post! thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted April 30, 2019 Share Depending on model its either USB or mini USB, there are a number of cables which it will accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vermooten Posted April 30, 2019 Share I had a similar incident a year ago. Picked up a 520,no info on it. Garmin couldn't tell me whom it belonged to, and my post on lost and found also didn't get any replies.I registered the device to my strava, synced the last ride and then saw the owner rode with me... I contacted him through strava then. I went through all that trouble just for the oke to send an Uber to pick it up from me, he did not even send me a proper thank you, nothing. At least i can tell myself i did the right thing, hopefully someone does something similar when i lose my stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does kind of leave a bad taste in your mouth but it still feels good to do the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
