I miss the mapping ability. True, many runners may not need it, but in our running club we are experiencing many who are trying new things, adventure racing, orienteering, etc, yet still run 20-30 races per year, a one-sized fits all GPS watch would be nice!

Yes, they even have a bike mount. I think it’s a fine solution if you just want to track your data, but it’s not a good choice if you want a GPS to navigate by.

Yes. I have the original 405 and it doesn’t matter how you get there, it will track you very accurately as long as it can receive from many satellites. If you’re running or biking along buildings that block the satellites, then there can be a slight problem.
