I got a Garmin!

I'm not sure whether this is helpful or not, so please correct me if I am totally off base. I know that when heart rate monitors first came out, they had issues with interference... especially with other cyclists being in a close proximity to you. I still find that issue to some degree in the shop trainer class, although generally I set up the bikes a bit apart and in a diagonal pattern and it stops. Anyway, I wonder for those in you in shop trainer sessions, if this could be the same case? Are you too close to each other and that's why there are problems with the units not reading?

Last summer I was getting ready to climb Donner Pass Road in the Sierras. Another cyclist was a few feet away. I fired up the Edge 500 and it locked on to the other cyclist's HR strap. I couldn't get it to pair with my HR strap until I rebooted it.

DMC, have you tried clearing the sensor data from your receiver and re-trying it (i.e., turn off cadence sensor, re-start the unit, then turn it back on again)?

Tried synching outside of the class today, but I was only 6 feet outside of the door, so it was still giving me 'multiple sensor units'. I found one teammate with a garmin, and he's never had trouble synching. We guessed that it was because his has been synched before, so it was easier to lock onto his sensor.

OakLeaf: Definitely worth a try. I left the bike in the team bike room, so I'll have to try that the next time I'm up there.
