Sunday was a gorgeous day
here in the San Francisco Bay area. Picked up my riding partner and had a lovely
day out at Bodega Bay. Sure felt good to be back in the saddle. Took my new toy
with me to try it out, a Garmin Forerunner 201. Now I'll finally know just how
long the big loop is. Put the Forerunner on the pommel of my SR Enduro saddle.
That way I could look at the readings while we're going along. B-I-G
mistake! Horses are feeling pretty frisky. They haven't been out in quite a
while. Karen's mare is spooking at just about everything. Wichita decides
to join in the fun. Any way, somehow I managed to hit the Forerunner and
pop it off the watch band on one side. No way I was ever going to find the pin
which holds it in place. I am going to call Garmin tomorrow to see about getting
a new pin. Question I have is is there any safe way to secure the unit to
the saddle or must it always be worn on one's wrist?????
