Speed (large numbers)

The second screen I have dedicated to heart rate info.
The third screen has elevation, grade, cadence and time of day.
On the bike I use a Polar bike mount that you can attach to your bars. The just attach the watch to the mount like you put it on your wrist. Inexpensive and works great.
Here is a link to the mount at REI:
