Got to my local Lidl at 9 this morning before the ebayers. For the first
time ever, they actually had everything that was advertised! Fitted the
cycling computer after lunch and have been giving it a try on a hilly route.
All works, but the speedo bit still registers speed even when stopped,
(about 17kph), so mileage and average speed are a bit of a guesstimate. I
don't know if it was RF interference or strong sunlight (the speed sensor is
supposedly IR). Mind you, I'm not going to worry about it given the price
and that I recently lost the one I got from Aldi 2 years ago!
