Was out of town for a little bit for a short vacay 3 hrs up north. I then went to try my exercise ticker, and something was up with the website. Hope it works below.

I love my Garmin. I just got the Edge 1030 last year. I had the edge 520 for LOTS of years before that but my eyes got too bad to see the numbers when I got all my data on the screen. My 1030 is strange. The battery drains when I shut it off but not when I put it in sleep mode. I don't know why. I just put it in sleep now. My 520 still works so I use it for my Fat Tire since I'm only riding for fun and don't need to see any numbers.
I don't know what the Edge is but I'm guessing it's for cyclists. I have the 935. The pages can be customized to only show one field at a time so I can read it without my glasses. The most important feature for me is the run/walk alert. I also like the workouts I can program. The 935 works the best of any of the Garmins I have owned. The battery lasts a week or more depending on how long I have the GPS tracking on. Before the 935 I only wore my HRM watch when I worked out. I wear this one all the time since it does constant step counting and heart rate and sleep monitoring. Plus my texts pop up on it - not that I can read them without my reading glasses.0 -

Yes. The Edge models are for cycling. Like your 935 you can change the fields in the screens but I’m a bit anal retentive when training. I want speed/distance/HR/cadence/watts/time/temp. When you put seven things on the screen, numbers get a bit small. 😉. I had a Yahoo for awhile but I like the Garmin better. The garmin does maps and segments. It will even put a rider on the screen so I can see how I’m doing against my best ride or my last ride.

Ticker Factory isn't working well. For some reason it won't save my setting when I bookmark it like it has for the past couple years. The website also looks different.

Congrats to @k80flec on making goal! With two tickers maybe double the congratulations are due??
ETA: and congratulations to me! I just passed 10,000 lifetime miles. I know that's not much for the cyclists, but for people like me who mostly run or walk, and who only count exercise miles not daily steps, that's a lot!3 -

The 935 lets me put one field per page so they are big enough to see without my glasses. Then I can either set it to rotate through the pages constantly or only when I press the button. I usually track 4 fields - I can see that rotating through 7 would be a challenge!1 -

Congrats to @ANACONDA469 for passing GOAL!!
And also to @JANET for her amazing 10K Lifetime achievement! 
Well, we're digging out from a 9" snowfall here in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. We broke a 104 yr old record for most and earliest snowfall. It's probably my fault though because I just traded in my sensible car for a Mustang convertible.
Got to drive it ONCE and now it's parked for a long while. But that's okay. It was absolutely too good of a deal to pass up. A 2013 with ONLY 11,500 miles on it! And it'll be there waiting for me.
