Lost V650 Bidon

[ilubinsky]

Hi,

 

I lost my V650 in the parking lot of Bidon anyone found it?

More specifics would go a long way to you possibily finding your V650.

 

The Bidon parking lot is massive. Also some people might not know what your are refering to by just saying 'V650'.

One must assume that it is a Polar V650 bike GPS unit...?

A bit of Googling found another post, which mentions that he lost it at the Bidon Bistro which is in Muldersdrift .

 

Now it makes a bit more sense

maybe it is possible, but I dont know, but surely it should be simple to build in a tool on the phone app for the GPS to enable you to find the thing should it fall off the bike.

I also have a Polar V650.  How do you locate it when no data is uploaded?  The unit don't upload GPS data automatically, have to be synced with either a phone or PC to Polar Flow and from there to Strava.

 

If this is possible, I would like to know how for incase mine also get lost.

I'm not sure if through Strava, the V650 has a beacon facility. If you go on-line and query your GPS device, it can send its position.
