That's a great price. When were they on sale? I can't see anything on the Aldi site.

In the display cabinet alongside the GPS watches, cameras etc. Maybe left over from a previous deal.

Thanks. I scoured my local Aldi stores before getting one at Halfords for £72. I hate missing a bargain.

I think they were £70 at halfords last week, less Quidco and British cycling discount

I got mine with BC discount, have never got the Quidco thing working. (Besides, isn't Quidco only for online purchases, where BC discount isn't available?)

You do click and collect via quidco, and you pay in store and get the BC discount at that point

Even better - get discounted vouchers up front and save another 10%.

well i bought the edge 200 today, but i must be daft or something cos i cant for the life of me figure out how to add courses from strava to it?

 

[vickster]

Perhaps plot the route in ride with GPS instead (or transfer from Strava)? That's how I do it - BUT that's an 800

Re GC route - you need to send the route to the Edge 200.

Re times. Go into your route and click the edit pencil. You have three input boxes (time/speed/pace) entering/changing one of these variables amends the other two. You use this to load a previously used route back into the Edge and you can use the virtual racer to 'chase' re your amended time/speed/pace, Clever little facility.

Re Strava courses (easier in RWGPS as already mentioned) just download the file to your computer. Hook up your Edge and treat it as an external hard drive and copy/cut and paste the route into New Files (I might have that wrong but there are not many folders in there) on the Edge. Very simple process.

yeah kinda got it to work now, quite buggy tho, like i edited the time on a route i made on the garmin connect site and tried re loading to the 200 but it hasnt changed it from the original time!
also added a map from strava, it shows on the 200 but not on the garmin connect site so i cant edit the time from .4 mph!
