By no longer providing media with access to products before launch, Garmin is creating a vacuum that gets filled with AI-generated garbage like this on YouTube and other social platforms.
They’re contributing to the problem, not solving it.
Garmin Edge update 32.20 is here for the Edge 550, 850, 1050, and Edge MTB with undocumented changes to radar alerts too!
But where’s the update for the Edge 540, 840, and 1040? 🤔

Now THIS is the Varia RTL515 upgrade many of us are still waiting for.
My thoughts on how Garmin could help restore confidence in a radar market increasingly flooded with cheap, poorly performing products are now over on YouTube: youtu.be/flX8d_EhHwY
"Garmin Ltd. (NYSE: GRMN) today announced it has acquired the TrainingPeaks and TrainHeroic training platforms for athletes and coaches."
That's big news. 👀
"Limiting the size of bike computers is intended to prevent an excessive increase in the amount of data available during races, which could significantly compromise rider safety. "
Limiting device size is not going to solve this problem.

I spoke about "AI" coaching back in 2018 on a Lama Drives. This is all still relevant 8 years on, even more so with the new Strava MCP released today.
IMO there's a LOT more it can do than just giving you interval sessions.

Someone's angry on the Internet because they think I've had a Garmin EDGE 1060 for a few weeks.
Reality is I don't know anything about any new Garmin products. This is their new media policy.
I"m Tweeting this to trigger more people searching for EDGE 1060 info. 😂

I have confirmation the Garmin Rally x10 power meter pedal price drop will NOT be reflected in the AU/NZ markets. 🇦🇺⛔️
The XC210 remains at AU$2249 (eq US$1595).
The MSRP is US$899 in the US. 🇺🇸🤷🏻♂️
Garmin have chosen to roll with extreme regional pricing differences. Crazy.
Zwift acquires Rouvy! Two of the most popular indoor platforms are now under the one roof. #dadjoke
Great news for Rouvy users - They get official support for Zwift hardware. No more hacks!

The US $88 Coospo S10 spider power meter claims ±1% accuracy, but testing showed inconsistent data that doesn't even come close to that claim. Sound familiar?
I've wasted time and money on this one so you don't have to. 👌🏼

Favero made a better Look power meter pedal than Look themselves. 🚴🏻♂️⚡️👌🏼

Three weeks after launch, Garmin have released an update addressing several critical issues I uncovered during my initial testing... but people are still returning their units for a refund.
I dig into why over on YouTube: youtu.be/yTcAKA13QIU
Getting new smart trainers to the Lama Lab has proven challenging over the last 12-24 months for various reasons. 🤔
Thankfully Magene were happy to send over their new T600 Eco model to be put through the Lama Lab test! 📊📈🚴🏼♂️⚡️

Everyone loves new features in a firmware update, but not the hide-and-seek game of figuring out where Garmin tucked the settings to actually turn them on. 🤣
I've got you covered. Full details of Garmin EDGE firmware 30.18 over on YouTube: youtu.be/xCUpsX0Wkwk
Under US$100 for a power meter with ±1% accuracy claims!? Bargain breakthrough or budget fake watts? ⚡️🤔
