A garmin on the other hand doesn't seem to care about spending 2 hours riding through a warm summer rain to the camp site.
Just trying to provide an option for the OP. He resides in Ottawa, so it could present an issue with rain.
I bought a clear "rain jacket" with my Quad Lock, which covers everything quite nicely.
Only used it a few times in inclement weather and it kept things dry.
In heavy rain, it becomes the least of my worries!
