    I am doing the Fred Whitton in a few weeks ansd apart from the normal fitness etc panicking the other thing that is pathetically stressing me out is whether my Garmin will last the ride?…

    Its an 810 and I am guessing if I dont have it linked via Bluetooth to my phone that should save a bit of battery life, does anybody have any other tips about how to make it last the duration (which may well be a long time đŸ™‚ )? I’m sure 90% of riders at it will have some kind of similar device and they cant all run out before the end?…
