So this morning, when I started out on my ride, my cyclocomputer was not reading. I mean, the display would come up,but it wouldn't show a speed. I tried moving it around, but couldn't get a reading. It worked fine yesterday afternoon.
After an hour, it started showing the speed, but it was sporadic and inaccurate. It would show the correct speed, then drop down to 2 mph, then instantly go back to correct, then drop again.
After another 30 minutes, after resuming riding after a potty break, it began working normally, and continued to do so for the rest of the ride, another three hours.
Is it possible that the battery was just cold, and as it warmed up, it began to work? At first, when I was getting the goofy readings, I thought this was typical of a dying battery, but then it started working normally again.
Temp went from 45 to 75.
Has anyone else experienced this?
