I have a Garmin Edge 205 that worked well the last time I tested it, but you may need to buy a new mount for it. You're welcome to give it a try before you commit, but I won't be out this coming weekend. PM me if interested.

Im not worried about mapping G Im quite capable of reading a road sign, just wa t something to log my miles just like your goodself as using my mobile kills the battery. Riding my bike isnt an issue I still do that.
I would like to think that in my job I can navigate myself around the local area without a map even
Ah ah D
