Started a ride with a planned course but got detoured. Had another course I wanted to change to but didn’t want to stop the ride and save..
Is there a way to keep the ride active and change the course?
Edge 840 Solar.
I ride the north east trails. Virtually every time I go out I come back with chigger bites on my legs. Long pants, socks, permethrin and still I get bites all over me. All it takes is dabbing one foot and you're done.
They are in the spider & tick family. Some say tick larvae.. but research tells me they are not. You don't know you have them until you start to itch a day or two later and then it's too late. They are gone at that point but the damage done. All you can do is keep clean, use calamine lotion or other "after bite treatment, let it pass and try not to itch.
I have a destination wedding next week.. in Oregon. Shorts are encouraged. My legs and ankles look like I have chicken pox.
Curious how others deal with them..
...cleared all the grease and wiped down the griddle while it was hot. No water was needed. Griddle looks awesome (mine is a Weber Slate).
So.. do you still feel the urge to oil it?
Maybe not just a Quick Edit question.. but I can't edit the post title...
I am still quite new to GoPro and find the Quick Edit function is sufficient for memorializing MTB rides.
My local MTB trails aren't the most epic so I have the GoPro9 set for QuickCapture. I have been creating small clips rather than one long one. Saves batter life and seems easier than dredging through long segments of boring climbs or flat sections.
Is this the best strategy? Seems easier to watch the shorter clips.
Trying to decipher what the number badges represent. The Edge, Epix and Fenix8 are all active and sync daily. The Forerunner and Fenix6X are retired. I just finished a sync on the Edge and it went from a green check to the #4. The Epix and Fenix just sync'd as well.
What do these badges mean?
I am still quite new to GoPro. Seems the Quik apps Auto Edit is sufficient for my needs at this point.. I really don't want to learn full on editing. Just looking to memorialize some MTB rides.
Is there a way to get the Title to overlay on the first clip in the timeline rather than sit by itself? When I export the video it starts with a blank white screen and I can't tell what the clip without playing it.
Thinking it might be a Spank Oozy 220 or 280 but the graphics on the side and top aren't on those models...
The switch to Clik valves was worth it. Easy, secure, quick.
I have a FlexTail Tiny Pump Pro that, with the Clik adapter works great for airing up Gnarwahl 27.5 x 4.5 tires on my Trek Farley. But my Gen 1 SKS AirChecker pressure gauge doesn't accept the Clik adapter so quick pressure adjustments are a challenge.
Clik had reported their Clik Stik pressure gauge would be back in stock in July but now it's delayed until September so I am looking for an alternative pressure gauge with a bleed valve that can accept the Clik adapter.
Any suggestions?
I have a handful of watched folders used only for managing image files exported from my preferred editor. The folders are typically empty before they receive the images. Existing shortcuts accept the images files when they are exported to the watched folders and add them to a specified album in Photos.
I'd like to create a new shortcut that takes the same new image files and adds all of them to one new Note, adds a title to the note and possibly tags.
Bought one a few months back when the Trek Air Rush was on backorder. Seems like it would be a good tool for trailside air-up but after a few months of use I find it wildly unreliable.
Set it for 9 psi and it turns off at 6 psi. Then the display flicks to 12 psi (when I know for sure I am NOT at 12 psi). Keep pressing the start button and it comes on and immediately off but never makes it to the desired psi.
I am using it with Clik valves now but I got the same results with Presta valves.
I love the size and convenience but if I can't tell what the pressure really is...
The LBS converted my Trek Farley to tubeless when I bought back in December. I haven't had any issues with leaking since.. until today.
I had my bike on my spare tire mounted bike rack for a few hours this afternoon parked in sun.. It was mid nineties today. A hot one.
Saddled up only to find the rear tire nearly deflated. There was no leaking sealant at that point. Aired up and I see this...
It was actually worse.. This is after a bit of time, a ton of spinning the wheel and a short ride.. the sealant is doing its job for the most part. This happened to only the rear. Front is fine.
Possible that the heat caused the tire pressure to rise to the point that it started leaking? Tire pressure is typically about 9 psi in the rear. What else could have caused so many leaks out of nowhere?
I have a set of Fatty Strippers I never installed... if this doesn't resolve itself I will unmount the rear and install the Fatty. If I do have to do that, how much sealant should I use for a 27.5 x 4.5 fat tire?
I've bought a six pack of the Wahlburgers Gourmet Blend Angus Beef Burgers for quick smash burgers. I vacuum seal two burger pucks at a time and freeze what I know I won't use right away. They defrost in a blink.. I move them from freezer to fridge in the morning and they are ready to hit the griddle in no time.
The flavor is fine but they shrink down to nothing on the griddle. What alternatives are recommended for pre-made smash burger blanks? I suppose I can, and likely should, buy a mound of 80/20 chop and divide it up myself.
I have always had more than one Garmin and always switch between them depending on a number of factors. Right now, it's an Epix ProG2 51 and a Fenix8 47. I switch the Primary Wearable in Connect when I swap watches and typically do so right before bed.
If you have more than one Garmin in rotation do you change first thing in the morning? Before going to bed? Randomly without a thought?
Odd.. the Epix appears to be photoshopped onto my forearm doesn't it? It wasn't.
Can’t seen to find a hydration tracking app that syncs to Connect and the Garmin app can’t be added as a complication. Plus the container sizes in the Garmin app make no sense…. -8oz, +8oz, +8oz, +10oz and +12oz? Why two 8oz? Silly.
Any suggestions? I can do without the complication but I would like to chance container size to something more sensible.
Love the paint scheme on the Farley5 but want to toss a splash of a bright color.. red, yellow, orange.. maybe..
Show me your accent colors please!
I have historically used Open Weather. Not sure why. Currently have an Epix G2 Pro and Fenix8 in rotation. I use Manuel_B's Fenix7 Pro Analog and Fenix8 Pro Analog faces almost exclusively with a single data field displaying current temp.
I also have an AW Ultra2 and the weather info is far more accurate.
On the Garmin's the weather Glance never updates to current location, so it reports erroneous info to the displayed data field on the watches, even with Connect open all the time and constant syncing..
Is Garmin Weather more current and/or up-to-date?
Cliff Notes: iMac & MacBook on the same network. iMac connects to DiskStation without fail. MacBook can't connect directly and verification email to log in using quickconnect sometimes comes, almost always doesn't. How can I access DiskStation using the MacBook?
I am a home user.. so zero network experience. I know an IP address has numbers and spots, but more than that I don't get it all. I am certain I will misuse more than one term, I'll surely leave out something important, I can't figure out how to stream my movie library and I struggle with most of this stuff... so... flame suit is on. Feel free to rip me but I really hope someone can help.
In spite of this I successfully set up a DS418 and have been using it for a few years, but I am reaching the end of my patience with inconsistencies connecting across devices and am starting to think Synology might not be the best option of someone with my limited knowledge. YouTube vids can get me just so far...
The NAS is 75% a backup storage device and 25% remote access to Synology Photos. I don't use email or any of the other enterprise tools. One Admin user, just me. Two other users (also just me), one of which is dedicated to the photos access/management on the iPads. I use Beyond Compare to sync local image folders to the NAS. It all works okay.
I am using one iMac, one MacBook and two iPads. At initial setup I was able to connect Finder on the iMac. That and DiskStation login via browser (Network IP in the url, choose the user & then log in) are my primary access points. The two iPads are used for Synology Photos browsing exclusively. Connecting the MacBook is where things go sideways.
Since the iMac & MacBook are setup on the same home network I assume the same Network IP string that gets me in on the iMac should also get me in on the MacBook. It doesn't. Safari on the MacBook just reports it can't access the web page. I have been able to connect the MacBook using XX.quickconnect.to. I don't do this outside of my home network. This adds the step of TF Authentication which is not a big deal. I can live with that. However the Verification email delivery is sporadic at best. It was fine yesterday but I've request the code a dozen times today and not once has it been delivered via email. Checked all the Junk & Spam folders.. nothing; Still waiting for an email. So my issue is how to mimic the access the iMac has when using the MacBook.
If there is a video or six someone can point me to, that would help. Trying to save you all from too much typing.
I bought this band a few years ago and absolutely love it. I have it in 26mm QuickFit and originally bought it for my old Fenix watches and now use it on my Epix PG251 and want it in 22mm for my Fenix 8. It is true leather with a brushed NuBuck finish.
Originally purchased on Amazon. But no longer available in any size. Tried eBay and Etsy and I am coming up empty. Has anyone purchased this band recently and have link?
I absolutely love the Amoled display. Super bright, even turned down, and wonderfully crisp. The difference is obvious when side by side with my Epix Pro G2. During the day, it is sharper and brighter.
However, at night the auto dim feature on the Fenix 8 makes the Epix a clear winner.
Is there any way to turn off the auto dim?
It's annoying.
I check off Remember this Browser, but Connect log in dialog doesn't. Read somewhere that it's a privacy issue but other than the mobile app I only sign in from the same two computers. I don't need or want TF verification.
