Exactly, and the Garmin 520 has "live Strava" (which is actually "real-time Strava") to allow you to see your performance against your
PR (or somebody you follow, or the KOM/QOM). I like this on some rides, and hate it on others.
Or you can get a lower priced Garmin and still enjoy the automatic sync with Strava.
To the non-Strava posters: as a guy in my club said, he doesn't believe in Strava.... it's a religion. Looks like I've been drinking the punch. but I won't force my religion on others
