Garmin Connect adds "Gear"

Logged in tonight to edit details on a run, and noticed a new “Gear” tile on my Modern dashboard.

Check it out here: http://connect.garmin.com/modern/gear

Nice feature: you can add a new pair of shoes and bike, and automatically add it to all the activities of a certain type that you’ve done since that gear’s “birthday” (my word, not theirs).

Looks like a good start. Can’t add different gear to history based on subsport yet though, eg roadbike to roadbiking, mtb to mountainbiking, trail shoes to trail run, etc…

Yeah, and I’d really like to see a column in the Activities view, for mass changes. But, it’s better than nothing, and something we’ve been wanting for years. :slight_smile:

…and it seems if a dropdown list appears you have no other options. I tried to enter Saucony Grid into shoes, but as long as Saucony is in the name it will only accept 1 of the options that appear in a dropdown list.

This could be a useful feature to keep track of mileage on race wheels (I do it manually now). I added race wheels as a gear item in the “other” category. I have my bike selected for every ride, but I can’t see how it will let me add a second gear item to a ride. Maybe someday.

digging it!

Shows the “gear” page for an instant then:

Anybody seen a web widget yet so you can put your recent workouts on your website?
