Garmin Data Fields

Torres09

Just took delivery of a Garmin Edge 520 gonna set it up tonight so just curious as to what data fields do seasoned Garmin\Wahoo users find most usefulîss??

I won't be doing any racing just club\casual spins....

On page one, I put: Current speed, current heart rate, current cadence, distance and elapsed time.
On page two, I put: Current speed, average speed, time of day, max. speed and temperature.
On page three, I put: Current speed, grade, elevation and total ascent.
On page four, I have map.
That's pretty much all I need.

Mine looks sometihng like this

   +---------------------------+
   |           Time            |
   |                           |
   +---------------------------+
   |          Speed            |
   |                           |
   +---------------------------+
   |  Distance   |  Avg Speed  |
   |             |             |
   +---------------------------+
   |  Grade      | Totl. Ascent|
   |             |             |
   +---------------------------+
   | Time of Day |  Heart Rate |
   |             |             |
   +---------------------------+

Then I have a second screen has the same fields* for the current lap, so If I hit the split button it will reset the values, I sometime use this on a ride that is part with a group and part solo.

On the 3rd and 4th screen I have the map and elevation profile but I almost never use them.

*except Total Ascent, I don't think there is a lap version of this field ;-(

speed, average speed, distance, elevation, total ascent, elapsed time, temperature, time of day - all on one page.

For me : speed, time, avg speed, distance, time of day, temperature.

I also have gradient but tbh now that you remind me i will remove it. The above are the only data fields i actually care about. I don't wear a heart rate monitor.

Mine are in the photo attached. I used to use other fields on other pages but I don't bother anymore. I also used to use a map page but it just ate the battery life.

When I was younger I used to put a lot more on screen now I cannot see so I make it a big as possible HR, speed and cadence are my must haves
