Hi Donna, I know your question was for Garmin but the wahoo has been a very reliable and easy bike computer to use as well. It has extremely good battery life and the screen is more saturated than the

Hi Donna, Lots of good advice on this thread. I would definitely advise against the 520+. Read dcrainmaker’s review of the edge 530 and it becomes readily apparent. I replaced my edge 520 with

Having been a devout Garmin user for many years I recently went for aStages Dash L50 instead based on a positive dcrainmaker review, Similar price to the 530. It pretty much does everything the

I've been on a couple online threads about recent 520 and 520 Plus deals, and the recommendations have been pretty consistent...spend the little extra for the 530. Very few reasons to spend the extra

Wow! You guys really are the best! Even Goldman. ;-) I appreciate the avalanche of quality information and now I have a lot to digest. I was out doing Census work today and glancing at the

Mike, here is my two cents. I’ve used the Lemond bike in my gym (very similar to Peleton). It’s ok, but lacks the realism that Zwift provides riding with real people. I much prefer zwift over

Hi Mike, I’ll answer 3) first. Check out dcrainmaker.com, there is a wealth of information about trainers and trainer apps under the buyers guide section. Specifically:

Also, at the high end is Expresso bikes: https://expresso.com/Home I used a beta version at a gym one very rainy winter and it was amazing. I've never ridden an indoor bike that so closely mimics real

Hi Mike, I have a Cyclops Magnus Smart Trainer. The newer version is the Saris CycleOps Magnus 2 Smart Trainer: https://www.amazon.com/Saris-CycleOps-Smart-Bike-Trainer/dp/B07WXDXCTH?ref_=ast_sto_dp I

My two cents..... When Julie had shoulder issues and could not ride outside I got her a Tacx Vortex smart trainer. We coupled it with Zwift. Here are the pluses as I see it: 1. You get to ride your
