Today my new cycling computer arrived. It is a beautiful looking gizmo, Garmin Edge350, that will record entire trips with GPS data, elevation, heart rate, speed and cadence. I've wanted a litte toy like this for while.
So far I am pleased with the out-of-box experience. I installed the software on my computer and plugged in the device. It started charging itself right away from the USB cable and my computer was able to connect to it. I played with the screens on the device a bit, set it for metric, and watched for it to find the GPS satellite. The device has a good quality feel to it. I would say everything went well and so far it has exceeded my expectations.
I will hook it up today and tomorrow I will take my bike out for a spin. So stay tuned for some blog entries backed with lots of data. The thing is small enough I will be taking it running with me too.
ciao
Tony
