Garmin Edge 305
Many cyclists who are serious about showing consistent improvement are using onboard cycle computers to track their cycling speeds and distances. The problem with many cycle computers, however, is the fact that many are only able to make these calculations with the help of cadence sensors, which can be difficult to set up, often have to be calibrated for a specific bicycle, and are sometimes not entirely accurate. The accuracy can be improved with the addition of a GPS device, but these must often be purchased separately at a cost of $100 or more. Garmin has created the Edge series of cycle computers with the goal of giving cyclists a better solution.
Garmin Edge 305
With the Edge 305, you can plan your workouts in any of three different ways: simple workouts are entered with your choice of a combination of distance, time, and speed, interval workouts include these same items, but have the additional feature of adding periods of easier and more difficult work, along with rest, as you see fit, and advanced workouts allow you to input specific courses from the free Garmin Training Center software. Course data, which can come from your previous workouts, fully exploits the GPS features of the Edge 305 by showing you an easy-to-read visual representation of the path that you will take as you bike. Additionally, as you look at the map, you can see a representation of yourself as you previously traveled the course, allowing you to easily see how you compare to your previous runs. If you would like to push yourself even harder, you can create a virtual partner to travel the course along with you, adjusting the partner's pace faster or slower with the push of a button.
