Hi, do you know if the 1040 can give reminders for drinking/eating ? I had terrible cramps after a ride some time ago and I think it was because I didnt drink enough. I heard someone saying one the Garmins has that feature but I forgot which one. Thanks :)
@CyclingwithRuss5 күн бұрын
@@322Patricia yeah it has that feature built in. It’s on all the units at least to the X30 range. The 1040 though has smart alerts so depending on the effort you’ve done it may give them sooner or later depending on the effort you've done

@@CyclingwithRuss Wow thanks for replying so quick. I am looking at both models 1040/1050 and with some of the deals going on now I can get the 1040 almost half price of the 1050 .. So trying to decide which to get. Thanks for your videos, very useful info I have currently the Edge 820, dont know if I can add that feature to it .. but I do like the climb feature you explained on your videos
@CyclingwithRuss5 күн бұрын
@322Patricia no problem 😉 I personally would still choose the 1040. The 1050 looks very nice but the 1040 has almost all the same features baring a couple that I’d never use and has a li her battery life ❤️ would be great if you could drop us a subscribe 😉

I put my pump in my back pocket now. Used to have it on the frame with the Domane, but can’t spoil the aero of the Madone! I’ve only forgotten the pump once and, of course I got a puncture. Managed to cycle 10km home with about 20 PSI left in the tyre.

I got them too. Can’t let those 3 watts go, can you? They’re a bit annoying as you have to hold them when filling. Get the RSL aero bars, unless you are sure the one piece bar and stem will feel right for you. Triton cycles had the RSL aero bars for £279 when I got mine in the summer.

@@CyclingwithRuss the best way is just to simplify it. Most of your training should be 'easy-ish' and long with the occasional pull up a little ramp / sprint (basically your weekend rides). Once a week / fortnight is a full on quick session. I guess you'll do this as a race, I tend to do an hour at Z3+. It's all about maximising 'time on saddle'.
