Do you need to link up to Garmin Connect or can you use Strava, or could you use both?

How does the start/stop work. I've read it can break rides up into different rides when you upload them? How long do you have to stop for this to work, ie traffic lights or a longer stop?

Thanks in advance.

    You don't have to use Garmin Connect. You can use both Strava and Connect if you wish to. You can use Strava on its own if you wish to.

    When you go below a set speed the device will auto pause. When you start moving it will un pause. This will not break up a ride into different ones. It doesn't matter how long the stop is.

    Does the Edge 25 come with two bike mounts?, I've read it does but it isn't clear on the Garmin website.

    Thanks in advance
