Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Merry Christmas everyone!<br><br>Now for those of you lucky enough to have had a Garmin for Christmas I have complied a short list of the basics to get you started. Rather than you having to go through the initial pain of getting used to the device's little foibles.<br><br>I heart the 305. Here is the article, any seasoned Garmin users feel free to add bits you think are useful.<br><br>http://www.fetcheveryone.com/article-view.php?id=142

Thanks Ian. I've had mine for a month but couldn't be bothered to read the instructions:)

Excellent, cheers Ian. Haven't had time to read through your note in detail, or the garmin instructions for that matter but got my 305 now so can't wait to get it up and running over the next few days.

Great work Ian. Appealing to all men who refuse to read instruction manuals.

One thing missing mind, how do you make it go faster?

Ah! I've been working on that one for a while now Binks. Unfortunately it seems to be related to hard intervals, throwing up and running like a bastard. :-);-)

Cheers Ian, just what I need.
I got mine on Saturday and then did my knee in training with it!
I will use this article to train on how to use a Garmin.
