Data fields Garmin with Power
Just got the Quarq installed and linked to the Garmin. Now I need to figure out which fields i want to display on the Garmin. Curious what others do.

this is probably what I'd do..
row 1 - ride time
row 2 - hr / power
row 3 - cadence / speed
row 4 - distance / time of day
row 1 - ride time
row 2 - hr / power
row 3 - cadence / speed
row 4 - distance / time of day

That's pretty much how I've got it divided now. Bike 1, all current stuff, speed, power,cadence, hr,grade.
Bike 2, cummulative stuff, average speed, total ascent, kj, average power, max power.

One of the nice things about the Garmin display is that you can so easily configure and try out different schemes until you find the one that floats your boat

My only gripe (and YMMV) with the 8 display is that I can't easily make out the power number when I'm mid-interval.
I agree about the convenience of being able to dictate what's on the screen though. During most races, I just have one field showing: total time.
For select races, I program the race course in to the Garmin and mark potential attack points as well as some other information about the course.

Does the Garmin display actual sunset, or civil, nautical, or astronomical twilight?

It's carbon dontcha know.
You move between the Bike 1 and Bike 2 screens by moving the joystick while on the data view. It confused me when I first got my 705 as I thought they related to the bike profile, I wish in some way they did as I don't need the cadence and lap information most of the time on my MTB.

I thought that was just the current lap data that I couldn't change. My is set(possibly factory default?)with lap speed, lap distance, and lap time. Old dog learned new trick - time for my nap.

On my 305:
Bike 1 = time, HR (use for cross racing)
Bike 2 = time, cadence, HR, grade (use for everything else including RR, and crits)
