@George0rwell When your BitTorrent client of choice has native Apple silicon support… but a tool to manage $$$ of tech gear isn’t…. 🤷‍♂️🤣

Garmin Edge update 32.20 is here for the Edge 550, 850, 1050, and Edge MTB with undocumented changes to radar alerts too!

But where’s the update for the Edge 540, 840, and 1040? 🤔

@Mark1Grande2 That'll be the upgrade for the RCT715. 📸

Now THIS is the Varia RTL515 upgrade many of us are still waiting for.

My thoughts on how Garmin could help restore confidence in a radar market increasingly flooded with cheap, poorly performing products are now over on YouTube: https://t.co/tbxidHZ9kd

@b_v_ww @adriancnolan @Garmin 100% agree. I'm working on a video about this right now. A Varia RTL525 would make a LOT of sense.

[Shane Miller 🦙 @gplama]

@adriancnolan @Garmin I’ve no insight into any new Garmin product.

I hope they’re rethinking the 715 update given the very lukewarm response to the Varia820. It should have been an easy home run after the popularity of the RTL515. It wasn’t for various reasons.

I wish I slept as well as my Cirqa thinks I do.

@randychipman I wonder if the flood of AI generated apps/services in this space has contributed to this decision.

"Garmin Ltd. (NYSE: GRMN) today announced it has acquired the TrainingPeaks and TrainHeroic training platforms for athletes and coaches."

That's big news. 👀

"Limiting the size of bike computers is intended to prevent an excessive increase in the amount of data available during races, which could significantly compromise rider safety. "

Limiting device size is not going to solve this problem.

I spoke about "AI" coaching back in 2018 on a Lama Drives. This is all still relevant 8 years on, even more so with the new Strava MCP released today.

IMO there's a LOT more it can do than just giving you interval sessions.

Someone's angry on the Internet because they think I've had a Garmin EDGE 1060 for a few weeks.

Reality is I don't know anything about any new Garmin products. This is their new media policy.

I"m Tweeting this to trigger more people searching for EDGE 1060 info. 😂

@ukexpat @ActualNames1 In the garden? Dude needs to RTFM. That’s the wrong bush for that equipment.

@admarks And for the pending flood of other cheaper options coming out of China.

[Shane Miller 🦙 @gplama]

I have confirmation the Garmin Rally x10 power meter pedal price drop will NOT be reflected in the AU/NZ markets. 🇦🇺⛔️

The XC210 remains at AU$2249 (eq US$1595).
The MSRP is US$899 in the US. 🇺🇸🤷🏻‍♂️

Garmin have chosen to roll with extreme regional pricing differences. Crazy.

Zwift acquires Rouvy! Two of the most popular indoor platforms are now under the one roof. #dadjoke

Great news for Rouvy users - They get official support for Zwift hardware. No more hacks!
