To record the ride and ensure we don't get lost a number of us use Garmin Edge GPS units, mine pictured above is an Garmin Edge 500, it records your position using GPS it also records your heart rate, cadence the air temperature and of course time, the amount of data it can show you while you are riding is fantastic... speeds, gradient, averages of everything you can imagine, it will also warn you if you are working too hard or not hard enough!
The Garmin Edge 800 (which Craig the ride organizer uses) also shows detailed maps and has advanced navigation, my navigation needs to be done on my phone as the Edge 500 only has pretty basic navigation functions.
Details of our daily rides will be uploaded from my Garmin on Strava which will enable followers to see exactly our daily progress.
