[RC] GPS - Garmin Forerunner 201 VS Timex Bodylink - Winter, Randy or Cheryl

   Not sure where the receivers are worn for these two units but I was told
by "a professional" that if the receiver is worn on your wrist your body
blocks reception from the satellites.  He suggested (as has been suggested
here on Ridecamp before) wearing the receiver on top of you helmet somehow.
The Timex Speed and Distance receiver is made to wear over your bicep which
works pretty well.
