Garmin Connect Sharing

[R600]

Can i ask how you share. the tab on mine isn't highlighted and isn't usable

Make sure you don't have your rides set as private. Also just copy the link in your address bar.

not going too well this thread is it ...

 

[Simba]

Not really, but never mind, it's not important.

Thought I would do some climb training. Had my route planned and such, didn't expect to encounter a 15-18% gradient. Still I managed it in a decent time.

how do you know the gradient %? Does the Garmin Connect show it?

The Garmin Edge 605 shows it. I also believe the Edge 500, 705 and 800 also show it.

True. It shows in one of the fields
I've got the 500. New toy, still learning how to use

Feel free to share your rides on here. I was looking at the 500 but I wanted a more detailed navigator with a colour map and screen. They are the same in every other area though I believe.

Also, once you start proper rides and analysing them you will wonder what you ever did without one. I've only had my 605 since Friday and I love it.

Did you get a map package with yours? Or did you buy one seperate? I got the GB TOPO V2 with OS road maps with mine.

I love checking the gradient whenever I'm climbing...that feature alone is worth like 50 quid...might just justify the price for 705!

Nice, kinda puts me to shame hehe. I know the 705 has an barometric altimeter which is more accurate than mine. Nice pace you got there for such a long ride.

No map but just the basic pre planned route option or run a course from history.

I see, if you do decide to get a map then get City Navigator if your device can use it. GB TOPO Is like £149.99, I am lucky as I got it free with the 605.
