LFTC Workshop: Garmin Navigation with Coach Wei-Ho

April 5th, 2018 at 19:00 - 21:00

Let’s be honest, tech is confusing. And no matter how many UX designers have been brought on board to make our lives easier, somehow we never quite get the best our of our bike computers. Coach Wei-ho has kindly offered to run a Garmin Navigation Workshop in the comfort of his home to a handful of members to help better understand your tech so that you can easily, create, sync, upload and share your cycling routes.

We only have 10 SPACES AVAILABLE, so it is a first-come-first-serve deal, so please sign up ASAP if you want to join. All the details are as follows and if you’re keen, you better hit that ‘book now’ button at the bottom of the page!

What:
Workshop to help riders understand how to get the most out of their Garmin cycling GPS units.

1. How to create routes on your computer and upload into your Garmin unit.
2. How to setup your Garmin unit for easy navigation.
