Training

Using Virtual Partner

Your Virtual Partner

®

is a training tool

designed to help you meet your goals.
1. Go for a ride.
2. Scroll to the Virtual Partner page to

see who is leading.
At the top of the page, you can use

+ and - to adjust the speed of the

Virtual Partner during your ride.

Courses

Courses allow you to follow a

previously recorded activity. You can

follow a saved course simply because it

is a good route. For example, you can

save a bike friendly commute to work.

You can also follow a saved course,

trying to match or exceed previously

set performance goals. For example,

if the original course was completed

in 30 minutes, you will race against a

Virtual Partner trying to complete the

course in under 30 minutes.

Creating Courses with Your

Edge

Before you can create a course, you

must have history with GPS track data

saved to the Edge.
1. Select MENU > Courses > Create

New Course.

2. Select a previous ride on which to

base your course.
