I can't be dealing with that shit half way through a race.
Ride for fun instead!
Oh shit, Garmin going wrong is still fucking annoying.
dancing james-
During my 600k qualifier for PBP it repeatedly locked up and caused much anguish during the night.
I have no data from my (aborted) Worlds this year.
The unit shut off as soon as I started the timer right before my 30mi club record race.
On Saturday's ride where it turned off and lost the first half hour of the ride - usually not important but I was trying to verify a route.Garmin 810s are not fit for purpose.
hippy
I'm returning the 810 to the retailer. It's not fit for purpose.
The 1000 is actually cheaper than what I paid for the 810 but I'd hate to give them more money for another product that fails intermittently. I can't be dealing with that shit half way through a race.
