Mine was stained a nice orange colour from its first run as I used Lucozade sport in it, even after cleaning it out with Bicarb soda and then rinsing with lemon juice and water (thats what the instructions that came with it recommend) its still retained its orange stain, kinda makes you wonder what the stuff does to your insides doesnt it ! :-)

Just for info someone mentioned in another thread that Tesco are doing camelbak clones for £10 and I had a look at these at the weekend and they dont seem at all bad for £10, nice flat pak with strap across the chest and pckets for bits suchs as keys and phone and the bladder and tube felt decent quality ... deffo worth a looksie for anyone looking at getting one.

As DM1 has already said coverage is worldwide and motionbased will show you how many people are using a GPS and motionabsed in your area.

I subscribe to motionbased and certainly theres quite a few users of the system in Sweden, selecting Sweden as a filter shows up 2,445 trails that have been uploaded to motionbased.

Training Centre that comes with the 305 and 205 is very good but Motionbased just takes the possible analysis to another level... tis all very motivating !!

Looks like wiggle have sent me a replacement 305 today (got an email and checked my account online with em) which is great service if they have, always worry about service when buying from an online retailer but they will keep my future business based on their performance on this one so far !

Hi DM 1

Looking at the lack of responses and the positive one form you is quite reassuring as I have been very pleased with how mine performed up to this Sunday so hopefully its an isolated problem that I have.

I think i must be tired (even though dont feel it) because I meant to upload the data, but completely forgot and have now merrily sent it on its way back to Wiggle after going through their returns process.

Sounds like they will just replace it straight away (from the automated responses) which is great service and will keep me buying from them in future if thats the case.

Doh doh and double doh .. I would have liked to see what it said about teh first half of the race ;-(

Ta for the feedbac about your unit.

My 305 seemed quite accurate and performed well, least it did right upto the point where it stopped working completely because it was full of water :-/
