How stupid do I feel. I've just spent £1000+ on a new bike when Tesco are selling one for £50.

Is this better than Strava which is free

Its better than using an app on a phone, because it is waterproof, much longer battery life, won't break if you drop it, you can use the touchscreen if wearing gloves, and probably more accurate GPS.

If you are a semi serious cyclist you really need to use a dedicated GPS like this rather than Strava on a smartphone. The main reason is battery life, security, damage and mapping whilst on the main be especially if areas limited connectivity. However, I am not sure this model supports Glonass the Russian based satellite system. Maybe someone can advise on this.

This is an awesome price, pre-ordered!
I've been using my phone for quite a while with Strava, which is great for recording rides, but like some I guess i've discovered that limit when you start embarking on longer rides and taking part in sportives that a flat phone happens and you only end up with only half your performance data.
Hopefully this will relieve the drain on my phone with all those ANT+ devices.

It offers a much more accurate gps tracker, ability to connect cadence and speed sensors and a heart rate monitor if you're really serious. If you cycle a lot it's worth it in my opinion.

and you can connect it to your phone to DL/UL routes
It doesn't - GPS only. Although there isn't really a noticeable delay getting a satellite signal, unlike the gps watches. The overall user experience sucked though for me - so it was sold and an alternative purchased.

I have one and these are great devices.
The 810 doesn't have Glonass but the new 820 does however that is nearly double the price and doesn't support micro SD cards as the 810 does meaning that you're also stuck with the Garmin maps rather than using free mapping systems like I do.
