Some people have the magic touch. I took the Garmin to the bike shop after work. I told them what was going on; and one of the guys took the Garmin and pressed the on/off button. Wouldn\’t you know, the crazy thing turned on immediately. I guess the man has a magic touch.

It turned out that the computer was totally out of charge; but I have no ida how that happened. I though I had turned it off after charging it up day before yesterday; but maybe I didn\’t. At any rate, the guys at the bike shop said to take the Garmin home and charge it up; and see how it goes. Lately I got some strange heart-rate readings from the thing; and I hope that corrects itself!

While I was at the shop anyway, I looked at Cateye computers; and some of them cost much less than I feared I might have to spend to replace the hybrid\’s computer. Things are looking up again.
