Need to get myself a GPS Mio Cyclo 505 for my bike. You can put in your home post code and a destination post code and the mileage you want to do and it sets a circular route for you. It also tries to make it as much cycle ways or quiet roads as possible.
Think this would be a fantastic addition to my bike.
I had one but went back to Garmin. The mounts and 1/4 locks are shite. I had mine snap off 3 times in 3 months. Each time it had to be sent off to be repaired, for free, but after the 3rd time I just went out at got a 810. The 1000 has the same route gadget as the 505. Handtec have them in a good deal at the moment.
Have had one for just over a year after two Garmin 810s both buggered themselves after a couple of monthsâŚreally good and full EU maps as well so was perfect for the annua trip to France
Did my 1st race on Zwift tonight which was surprisingly hard and surprisingly intense. Had to bang out 340w ave power for the race itself, my FTP is 337w!
In the top 3 across the line. We had broken away on lap 3 and had a 16sec gap. Results are based on Strava times from crossing the start/finish line so final result wonât be known until tomorrow but a deffo podium.
Was good fun, Iâll be back at it next week I think.
Back on the road for oldies chaingang tomorrow evening.
-5 on this mornings run⌠fuck was it cold with the wind chil on top, but being so soooper manly we battled on for a reasonable (given the temp) 65km⌠then hit the cafe for warmers - I was good and had lentil soup⌠the âcrewâ wentfor blackpudding rollsâŚ
Looks good. There is a nice overnighter we do form Carlisle to Edi (approx 110miles) to meet the sunrise on the summer soltice - usually rains up here though
Some of my mates are doing this. Coast 2 Coast but I wasnât prepared to pay ÂŁ70. Plus it has Wrynose and Hardknott back to back and Iâm having a flat fast year in 2016!
