Bike Somewhere ELSE! 
2008-10-09
These guys are not honest. Ordered another this item. Did not arrive. (For over a MONTH!) Several phone calls to full VM box. Did not reply to emails. Submitted claim to Amazon then, BikeSomeShere canceled my order so that I could not leave well deserved negative feedback. These guys cannot be trusted. Go to their storefront and see how many similar complaints. Buy this from someone else.
Very good! 
2008-10-02
Really nice product! It is a complete training device that will help you improve your performance! Easy navigation, lots of different data to check for your physical conditioning and training. The only problem is that we can not add maps, but the software included is good to edit and visualize your recorded tracks.
Info made easy 
2008-09-30
The Garmin Edge 305HR is a great product. Easy to set up (it did take me some time to get the cadence equipment adjusted so it registered - but I am hopeless with things like this) it gives you a clear display of your heart rate, cadence, speed, distance, time of day - almost anything you want. It uploads to your computer in a snap. It has many other functions which I have not explored yet.
Garmin 305 2008-09-23
This is my first computer with heart rate and cadence and I love it. The software that comes with it is just ok. Installation and use are very simple.
Top Notch Gadget 2008-09-20
I purchased this gadget as the Forerunner 201 I was using was not giving me the info I wanted for the biking I was now doing. I wanted a cadence reading and better reading on hill grades and elevation. The Garmin Edge does this very well.
Other positives on this unit: two pages of up to 8 readings each page. Each page can be customized for any of the many readings (even a compass heading for those directionally challanged.) and in any order desired. It also picks up the satellites very quickly. No undue waiting around as with other units. Battery life is also good. I did a century ride last weekend and it held a charge for the whole ride (over 10 hours).
It syncs well to my computer so I can look at maps and data later.
The only negative I have seen so far is that with 8 parameters displayed on a page, the numbers are small and difficult to read if I am not wering my reading glasses.
I like this Garmin a lot and would recommend it to anyone who loves to look at their bike ride numbers while riding and after the ride.

Works as advertised 2008-08-31
If you're looking to train for events or just want to know your progress, this is a nice piece of gear. Easy to install (all pickups are bluetooth wireless and "pair up" without any effort). I have a fairly high heart rate for a guy over 60 (MAX 190), so my biking buddies aren't much help when trying to determine "zones". I had a VO2 and lactate performance "test" and it resulted in exactly the same conclusion I found using the Garmin (166 is my sustainable climbing MAX).
You can setup training routes, a virtual training "partner", etc.
If I had it to do over, I'd do the same thing.
Great speedometer, HR monitor and data collector 2008-08-28
Very easy to install and configure. The bike mount is a little bit flimsy but it works. It is easy to transfer between bikes (not the cadence meter though). GPS reception is fantastic - on out-and-back courses I can clearly see which side of the road I was riding on. So far it has proven to be waterproof and I have not had issues with the battery life (I haven't ridden with it for more than 4 hours though). While riding there is a whole slew of info to look at but I tend to look at speed, time , distance and HR zone. All the rest is icing on the cake. After the ride, the data collected by the 305 becomes the cornerstone of a digital training diary - I can compare speeds, grade and HR on various portions of my favorite routes, plot elevation profiles, view the data in google earth, etc. It is a data analysts dream.
Nice unit but software is poorly designed as are the mounting brackets 
2008-08-22
The brackets are poorly desinged or designed with the purposeful intention of breaking such that you have to buy new ones. Mine broke and a car ran over my GPS. Nice work Garmin.
The software provided by Garmin is also poorly desinged and my unit alway had a hard time connectiong to my computer.
