I am an avid Mountain Biker who lives in the Andes Mountains Cloud Forest Region of Ecuador. It's a Mountain-Biker's dream. For about a year, I have used a Fitbit Charge HR in conjunction with Strava and other apps. My favorite is Runtatstic's MountainBike app on my iPhone. That said, I have quite a few 'social' connections via Fitbit which they do quite well. I got a Vivosmart HR about a month ago and have been wearing them both during most of my activities except for water sports because, well... the VivoSmart HR is waterproof. ;)
I love the device and it has been working great for me. I have been wearing the Vivosmart HR around my left ankle with a rubber band and it's cycling accuracy is very good. The problem is that I want to connect with other cyclists in Garmin Connect, but the community aspect of it is deplorable. Fitbit makes connecting with others so easy and fun.
So, 2 things...
Are you a mountain biker? If so, I'd like to connect with you via Garmin connect. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/profile/El-Caballo-Blanco

Secondly, Are you a Vivosmart HR user who also does Mountain Biking? I'd like to know what tricks or tips you might have.
