Having elevation info is useful. But I'd also like to see a GRADE% graph option in Garmin Connect so I can know the grade at any given point of the route. I notice that Garmin Training Center gives me this option but not Garmin Connect.
Thanks
What are the plans of Garmin for implementing grade-information in Garmin Connect. I tought Garmin Connect would be the most important piece of software because it's platform independent.
I would also like the ability to see grade. This and comparing activities are the two big limitations that Garmin Connect has over Training Center. I know they added the ability to compare activities in Nov 2010 but it is only text based. I would like to see graphs like Training Center does as well as the text statistics.
These are not that difficult to implement. It would be nice if Garmin would support these feature requests.
It would be nice to see the Grade % in the summary as well as graphed with ability to correlate a point on the graph with the map (similar to Garmin Training Center). I would like to be able to see the Max Grade % included with the summary Elevation information.
Went for my first ride this morning with my new Edge 500. I do have the GSC10 and HR monitor. Everything worked quite well. I went on a previous loop so I could compare the data to my Sigma HR1909. All the readings were spot on and I'm very impressed. When I uploaded the activity to the Garmin Connect site everything transferred fine. All in all, quite a machine.
Sure would be nice if I could review the grade percentage along with the other fields. I believe Garmin could do this. Hopefully soon.
Here's another vote for adding some sort of graphing function to display grade percentage. It seems to me that any data field that's available on the device should be available for display in Garmin Connect...
