Race a Course or Race an Activity Using an Edge Cycling Computer

Select Edge® cycling computers will allow you to race against the speed of a course or previously recorded activity. There are 4 possible ways in which speed will be displayed depending on the type of course or activity you are racing against:

  • Race an Activity

    • Dynamic speed: Virtual Partner1 will match the speed of the previously recorded activity.

      NOTE: Refer to the owner's manual for your Edge for more details on using Virtual Partner.

  • Race a Course Created From an Activity on Your Edge

    • Dynamic speed: Virtual Partner will match the speed of the previously recorded activity.

  • Race a Course Created in Garmin Connect

    • The average speed used to create the course in Garmin Connect will be the constant speed of the Virtual Partner.

  • Race a Course Created From an Activity Within your Garmin Connect™ Account

    • If the course has not been edited, it will have zero speed and will need to be edited to have an average speed.
