    Also the last 4 bikes and runs have all come up as 'crossmaglen' and then either bike or run. One if these was a turbo and none neat crossmaglen.

    The new GC update attempts to label activities with the closest location it knows of. Unfortunately it only knows locations in the UK. Crossmaglen is the closest UK town to your house.

    This explains "all" the training I was doing in Derrylin over Christmas then. Thankfully it doesn't try to do that for Galway.

    If the 920 had a built in camera like that it would be pretty cool
