Garmin migration continues sloooowly 5
Garmin’s migration of activities from MotionBased [MB] to Garmin Connect [GC] began o/a 04/8/09. I noted migration of activities from my digest April, 13th, with 14 rides having been migrated. To date, 54 activities have been migrated. Earlier today, it was 46. The migration of my activities seem frozen between 04/15 & 04/24, while the records migrated remained at 32. Garmin Connect officials assured me this was not unusual. I have 451 records. At this rate, completion will take about a year. That’s a year before GC supports my Garmin Edge 305. In the meantime, I am to continue uploading to MB, which seems to exacerbate the process. Anyway, it makes me wonder. Patience is still a virtue…
Crank Forward Ride Impressions 3
In this case a RANS Citi CF. First, I think I have to give my overall impression of a Citi [and CFs in general] ride and then the unique aspects of my build. There are few Citi [or RANS] single speed builds. I’ll do my best in this review.
- Citi
I was fortunate to have ridden a RANS Fusion CF in Morton, Illinois last July following RAGBRAI. The fun of riding it inspired me to buy a Citi. I think there is a special feeling of control and responsiveness that’s unique to a crank forward bike. It tracks really well. The long wheelbase ensures a comfortable ride and with big low-pressure tires, a lot of road rumble vanishes.
