Garmin warning!

[SadieKate]

I've had my Garmin Edge 305 for a little over a year, and it only spontaneously turned off on me once. It was during the Crater Lake Century, and I assume it was after I didn't avoid a decent sized pothole on a descent.

Mine did too but I discovered it on the climb after the Phantom Ship Overlook rest stop (when Keith was trying to keep up with the two "Devil Women"). It was working when I arrived at the rest stop but that was one of the longest rest stops I've ever taken so I assumed it had shut down to save power.

Poor Keith. Just had to keep up with the wimmen. He was going backwards by the time you two burned him up so it was easy to pass him.

Ah yes, my new nickname: Demon Woman. I like it!

But SK, you're too modest: you didn't pass him, you rescued him. You even gave him a lot of your limited supply of water. Me? At that point, it was every man (or demon woman) for him/herself! I started to head back to check on Keith, but saw that you had it under control, so I continued up to what I had hoped would be a water stop.

Keith was fun to hang with, though. And he had that beautiful Merlin Cielo...

There. Have I thoroughly hijacked this thread, or what?

Oh no. I'm talking about later after I'd rescued him and after we descended to the Phantom Shop and after all of us, even Bubba, talked to him about electrolytes at the rest stop. He still tried to keep up with you and Kim on that last climb. Silly boy. Slow learner, but nice guy. He yelled hello at me later when I was waiting at the falls for poor crash-damaged Bubba to get over that last climb not knowing the rest of you had found some lovely shade with LeeBob.

Hijack off. Maybe.
