    Does anyone know if these zero out after 10 hours??

    I love my ciclosport except for the fact that it zeroes out time and distance (but at least not altitude) after 10 hours. It's like any number greater than 9:59:59 won't fit on the screen. I'm not doing any doubles under 10 hours any time soon! It would sure be nice to not have to watch it like crazy for the last 15 minutes and then miss it right when it zeros out so I don't have an accurate mileage counter...

    the 720's? no... they don't... they keep on ticking! lol!

    but the memory may get full if you have the number of readings set too low.... you set it to check the stats every... uhm... forget the exact number.. but like 15... vice every 5 seconds.... then you have more memory available...

    my memory got full once... but i still had the info at the end of the ride (i did write it down before turning it off.. just in case.. but it all uploaded fine! as a matter of fact.. it was BA.. the ride i'm doing this weekend that i'm stressing over the edge lasting long enough without dying!

    Hmmm... that's pretty cool. Thanks for the info, guys. Maybe when my ciclo dies that's what I'll get. I can't imagine a situation in which I would ever ride for more than 99 hours 99 minutes continuously!!!

    Not for cycling, but I do plan filling up all 99 hours at some point. I'm doing the Inca Trail in September and want to log the altitude and HR data for walking and sleeping during the four days.

    Unhappy HRM and Cycle Computers

    OK I have a basic Polar HRM and a double wireless Cat Eye bike computer and unfortunately the two interfere, telling me I have a HR of 235 or something equally ridiculous! My HRM also messes with the computer, indicating outrageous cadence rates. I'd suggest spending the $ and go for the HRM with cycle features like the 720
    Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!

    Just ordered the 720...

    REI has their spring 20% off coupons out and I couldn't resist! It's being shipped on Monday, so I should have it middle of next week. Of course, I probably won't get to play with it until next weekend. Nice to have a cool toy coming in the mail
