I'm looking to purchase a Garmin Edge 830 and would like to use for activities other than cycling.
Both handheld and watch GPS units allow activity profiles for different activities such as Hiking, Kayaking and even driving. Does the Garmin Edge 830 support these even if I need to manually create activity profiles?
The manual shows you can create new activity profiles but nothing about how you could create profiles for non-cycling activities. It would be great if hiking could route by foot and kayaking route direct.
Perhaps I can hack a settings file when connected via USB? I'm open to suggestions.
It would be great if activities sync to Garmin Connect using the correct activity type but it wouldn't be too much hassle to change after the fact.
Thanks.
