My Garmin 810 has US GPS only, no GLONASS. I've never noticed.

The 810 boots up and finds satellites pretty quick in my experience and tracks a road ride very close. or at least the track as viewed on Connect after the ride is dead on. I've seen repeated accuracy of about 6/10 of a mile per 100 as compared to a calibrated Cateye wireless cycling computer.

I had heard that riding in deep woods can make any GPS inaccurate, GPS or GLONASS, so I use a speed sensor on my mt. bike.

If you could find an 800 or 810 cheap enough, they work well as well. Or the Lezyne units are good deals.
