F5 reboot under outdoor cycling activity.

Last two outdoor bike ride I experienced that F5 reboot several times. Average distance was 50km on MTB and during those rides F5 reboots, and pause the activity. Anyone else have similar issues? I use Garmin HRM-Tri and Garmin speed and candence sensors. Very frustrating because i never know when it rebooted, so much recording is lost. Last ride over 15 minutes was gone.

Edit: No sleep recording either last two nights. Nothing shows up in GC.

solved the issue on Sunday's ride! I left the watch on and close to the phone with GC on before going to bed. It synced a gazillion times it seems...
next morning, during a 3.5 hour ride, not a single reboot!
Seems like the trick is just to leave the watch on all the time. Doesn't use so much battery actually.
hope this helps, but please Garmin, check into this and post something.

Has anyone actually solved this issue? I have been having the same problem with the watch constantly rebooting.
