2018-01-14-Sun-Trainer-PainCave

It finally got too cold and messy out for me to want to either cycle or run, so I've set up the "pain cave". I used to do this in the garage, but the garage is too full of bikes to have room for biking! That moved me to the sitting room. Not everyone's pain cave has a grandfather clock or a china cabinet! With mats on the floor and the laptop on a stand to provide entertainment while grinding, it's rather more pleasant than the garage. Extra Garmin cadence and speed sensors went on the old Trek sitting atop the trainer, allowing me to record this session. The session itself was just 15 minutes. I need a fan in the room, too, for sweat mitigation.

  • FIT Course

    Best format for turn-by-turn directions on modern Garmin Edge Devices

  • TCX Course

    Best format for turn by turn directions on Edge 500, 510. Will provide true turn by turn navigation on Edge 800, 810, 1000, Touring including custom cue entries. Great for training when we release those features. Not currently optimal for Virtual Partner.

  • TCX History

    Useful for uploading your activity to another service, keeping records on your own computer etc.

  • GPX Track (.gpx)

    Useful for any GPS unit. Contains no cuesheet entries, only track information (breadcrumb trail). Will provide turn by turn directions (true navigation) on the Edge 705/800/810/1000/Touring, but will not have any custom cues. Works great for Mio Cyclo. Find GPS specific help in our help system.
