[RC] Garmin Forerunner 205 reviews - Susan & Jerry Milam

Hey Ridecampers,
 
Been using the Garmin Foretrex 201 for training and rides for about 2 years now and am looking for a bit more accuracy in forested trails which is a great deal of what we do in our sport. The thing works great without woods all 'round, but have to start calculating for straightlining as soon as we enter woodsy areas. I'd say I usually figure on  25-30% error in my distance and mph numbers.
 
I've heard they have a new unit with a new receiver that does well in canyons and folliage. Anyone using it that can give a review?
 
TIA
In His Hands,
Susan, Fly Bye & Dandy
