I think that there was a small indicator that showed it was off but not very noticeable until I reached the top of the climb and started down and got to fairly easy descent from the 12% top descent. This means that I cut 10 miles off of my 38 mile recording. Luckily I did this exact route a month ago and so could get the climb and length off of it. But the new Shamal wheels which had a remarkable effect on my flats speed didn't show any true average speed.

So hopefully that wil correct the problem. It shows the route when you get to the end of the ride and connect it with Garmin Express, but it shows zero mileage for these sections.. The last time the Garmin switched off at 5 miles into a 30 mile ride leaving me to guess at distances.

He had issues when the unit came out but all that was solved by the first couple of updates. Garmin and software is not a great combination. Have you consulted the Garmin forum:

Tomorrow I'll be taking anoter ride and start early and hope the wind and weather aren't too bad or hot. If it fails yet again after I've reset it, I'll have to call Service again. The last problem I had he sent me a non-released version of firmware that fixed all of the problems. I think I'll carry the 810 in my back pocket so that I don't have to guess at distances anymore. The 830 is smaller and lighter but DAMN are a lot of people having problems with it.

I will try it again today and then change it over to the version 2 speed and cadence sensors which I think are different. If this works I will let the Garmen people know that they have a big fat bug sitting in the middle of their Version 1 sensor firmware.

I cannot get into adding a sensor screen because pushing the 3 lines has absolutely no effect. Fooling around with the power button gets me into a power screen at the top of which is an item that says "Lock Screens" pushing that has no effect either, as does pushing the buttons below it saying "power off" or "go to sleep".

So you're admitting you lied about you bringing your wife to the US and her not liking it. She of course preferred a Thai open air market with flies covering the produce rather than an air conditioned supermarket with food that people don't have to wonder if it will poison them or not.

John, every posting you make allows the world to see just how sick you are. You and Liebermann are two of a kind. But Jeff probably isn't blowing young Thai boys like you are. Jeff didn't tell us all that he had never collected his military retirement. And Jeff, as crazy as he is believing that he can test for cancer using home test kits, at least makes a slight attempt to Google things that MIGHT be true and then presents them as absolute truth.

You are showing yourself as a clown with each posting. You are a low IQ type who really would like to present yourself as smart. There was nothing at all wrong with being yourself but you want to be more than that. And so you show a level of ignorance that is shocking to normal people. You even make Russell look smart and THAT is really hard to do.
