Will have to get on strava as that 20% towards the end--just nips in at 30% Slow ride but just wanted to check the camera and I hope there are better ones about. Sound reproduction is bad- and battery life is not good. It does not have an L Ion battery and the rechargables have to be the higher value ones. Started with fully charged ones and The next clip ran out of battery life. So If I am asked an opinion on the Drift X170----- it is not good enough. My digital camera takes better videos than this and with better sound aswell.

Also first ride with the Garmin 500 and will have to get the screens set up for me. Easier to read than the 305 but there is a delay on registering gradient. Flat roads seem to show a negative gradient and when you do start a slope- you know when you are going uphill- it takes a while to get above "0" gradient.
