    My partner is completely clueless when it comes to bikes and accessories and I prefer to keep it that way. I could buy a $500 garmin and tell them it cost $30 and they wouldn't know.

    Trouble at mill.......

    Email received, delivery from Amazon due at work this afternoon.

    Wife called, just "popping" in to work this afternoon.

    Urgent discussion required with reception to hide Amazon parcel and not give it to her "just to be helpful"

    All my hard and devious work could soon to be undone.

    I feel the purchase of a bottle of wine coming on.

    Wish me luck :roll:

    To be honest though, you have 6 bikes and you are worried about £80 spend? Surely she would have divorced you by now with that many bikes lying about?

    No she's "popping in" to say Hi before picking up the sprogs.

    It's been mentioned believe me but who couldn't love an old Chopper like mine :?

    £80 is a lot of money to some people.

    What a great gadget the Edge 200 is.

    Used yesterday and today, had to fiddle a bit to get Garmin Express loaded onto my PC but now it's all set up I am VERY impressed.

    My lovely wife caught me out finally and I got the "raised eyebrows and no words" treatment when asked what was in the Amazon box.

    Worth it though, what a great buy.

    Fair point.

    The mistake there was not chucking the Amazon box at work...
    Glad you like the Garmin, been very pleased with my 310XT
