Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

It has what's described as a breadcrumb trail. This better than it sounds though. It is not a map by any means but it does show just the road (a double black line on a white background) you are on and does give turn alerts starting from a distance that you can determine in the settings.
Fair to say that it takes 99% of the doubt away from where it is you are going particularly if you have worked out a route through minor roads and ask that same old question "is this the second or third right?"
...it will clear those doubts up.
It obviously does everything else.... heart rate, HR zone, HR average, distance to/from, etc etc etc. The Garmin software is good as well.
Personally, I like it.

Let me know what you think. Does it do turn by turn routing

Has the breadcrumb trail with turn by turn arrows. No mapping. Picked it up this morning. Looks a nice piece of kit.

Used the 130 for the first time today. A very nifty little bit of kit. And @HLaB may like to know is that you can have the option of the time of day on the main screen.

I bought the 130 a couple of years back for commuting and because of its ability to pick up sensors; its a great wee unit you've got it at a great price

I'm looking for a cheapish Ti & saw that myself, sadly the 58cm isn't large enough But it looks a very nice bike for that money

Shimano m520 SPD pedals for £20. Always worth having in case a new bike turns up unexpectedly.

I ordered and received a pack of the 5 for £25 ones. Pretty decent and the elastic doesn't hurt my ears or cause my glasses to fall off.
More or less need to have one to hand whenever we're out and about as its now a requirement to wear a face covering in any shop in Scotland. Fortunately I remembered to take one with me on Saturday's ride, or i wouldn't have been able to go in and get my lunch at the cafe/farm shop.

They are sold out of spare filters. Are they washable? Would they work without filters?
