    Garmin Edge 540 vs 530 vs 130 review after 8 months
    Jan 17 2024
    Unnoticed, another 8 months of cycling have passed, and we are already so close to the new winter of 2023. The only difference from the previous 8 months of cycling is that my old Garmin Edge 530 - Mando has a new owner, and during the last 8 months I am actively testing the new Garmin Edge 540 with the code name Bo. The Nikname "Bo" is short for Bo Katan Kryze.

  • The Unexpected Benefits of Winter Cycling

    The Unexpected Benefits of Winter Cycling
    Jan 16 2024
    Winter cycling is not just another workout in the gym or yet another pointless ride in Zwift! Cycling outdoors in the winter largely changes the rules of the game. Pedaling in the cold offers a unique combination of physical and psychological benefits. Benefits that far exceed the limitations and boredom of indoor training in front of another screen. In winter, the cold, short days, the temptation to stay comfortably at home – all this makes us less active in one way or another, which in turn inevitably leads to more isolation and a decrease in mood. But here's the interesting part: winter cycling is not only one of the super effective sports, but also ATTENTION (a surprising fact): there is a much lower likelihood of injuries in winter cycling compared to popular winter sports like cross-country skiing and alpine skiing disciplines.

    Jan 15 2024
    The long-awaited Garmin Edge 540 is finally available Worldwide! Ever since information about the new Garmin Edge 540 / 540 Solar / Edge 840 and the 840 Solar version of the bicycle computers was leaked on the Internet at the beginning of the month, I have been reading many posts with information about the parameters and capabilities of each of the four new models.

I have watched dozens of video reviews and read overviews dedicated to the four new Garmin Edge bike computers. I've watched dozens of videos on YouTube with detailed analysis of the parameters and differences between each one of them. All that time, I've been asking myself the following IMPORTANT question: - Is it worth upgrading from the iconic Edge 530 to the new (more expensive) Edge 540 ...
