The Garmin Edge 305 is an amazing piece of GPS technology...about the size of a (small) cell-phone, operates from -20 to -60 degrees Celcius (which is about 35 degrees more than I do on the warm end for sure).
And, it keeps track of about 32 separate factors (to wit: Cadence, Cadence - Average, Cadence - Lap, Calories, Distance, Distance - Lap, Distance - Last Lap, Distance - Paused, Elevation, GPS Accuracy, Grade, Heading, Heart Rate, Heart Rate - Average, Heart Rate - Lap, Heart Rate Zone, Laps, Speed, Speed - Average, Speed - Lap, Speed - Maximum, Speed Zone, Sunrise, Sunset, Time, Time - Average Lap, Time - Lap, Time -Last Lap, Time - Paused, Time of day, Total Ascent, Total Descent). It's enough to make a data-dweeb drool!
And then you get to upload all this treasure into your computer where you can analyse the pulp out of it at places like MotionBased.com.
Photos and videos to follow... this is almost as much fun as riding the 'bent!!!
