HRM on the bike

How do you guys monitor your HR on the bike? And then you go on the run and still have it?

I would assume you just bike with your watch on and monitor it that way? Isnt that annoying?..Or does your computer on your bike pick it up?

Do any pick the coded signal up?

Thanks!

I just wear my watch - I put it so the watch part is on the front of my wrist (not the usual back) - so when I’m on my aero bars - I just roll my wrist a touch and can see it…I then wear it on the run…

No it does not bother me. Why would it?

Powertaps, SRM, and Ergomo all pick up non-coded wrist straps…not sure about others.

I leave mine on the bike…I watch close on the bike - presuming I am racing at IM distance. Then do the run at what I feel I can - screw the HR. Training, i take 45 seconds and take it off my bars.
