Would this keep track of mileage traveled on horseback?

If you leave your trailer you can mark the spot and go riding . As you ride you can check your distance from your starting point .That will give you the distance.

Well, it depends how one interprets that question. If you want it to track how far you've traveled in a database (or electronic log file) so you can go back and review your mileage later then NO. However, if you want to tell how many miles you are RIGHT NOW from a stable or trail head (and which direction to travel as the crow flies to get back to your point of origin), then YES. This device only tracks REAL TIME information, and does not store or log anything other than your current location and direction from 1 - 3 way points you've actually traveled to and marked on the device.

Sure. It could serve as such. As long as you have a clear shot of the sky - outside your car or outside your hotel - just mark the location on backtrack and it will guide you back to your hotel or car showing the direction and distance (dimishing distance if you're proceeding correctly or increasing distance if you're not.)

No. It is not a GPS device. Nor does it "reflect" map application information (but that would be nice) . It only "reflects " performance oriented data from a compatible App like: wahoo or strava; time, speed, cadence, pace, rpm, heart rate, etc.

Yes it does. We use it riding quads in the desert. It tracks existing trails, POIs and where we traveled. The manual is almost useless. Just play with it.

My husband has a Garmin watch that he loves for training purposes. You might be better off with one of those types of products. It uses GPS to track distance traveled and gives you your pace and other things. It works with software and you can see the map of your hike and other neat features. Of course, that will cost more, but might be more useful to you.

Absolutely not. This only tracks your mileage that your run. I has no map etc.

I have never used it for bicycling, only running, but it should be able to compute speed and distance travelled regardless of whether you are running or on a bike.

It does not. It keeps track of your distance and time only. What is nice is that you can run where you want without paying attention to any route. At the end of your run you can 1) See how far you ran 2) See your time for each mile of your run 3) See your average pace for the entire run and 4) During your run you can see your current pace. You will need to know yourself how to get to your destination.

Hi Pam! No, this particular model doesn't tell you the time that you walked/ran. It gives you an all day total of steps, and how many miles those steps equals.

Sure, if you are not interested in keeping track of total miles driven it could certainly work that way. I personally keep mine plugged in to log everything and then weekly I identify the business trips in their trip log. My understanding is if audited, the IRS wants to know the reason for the trips in addition to the miles driven.

It might, but I wouldn't recommend it. I would use a step-counting device (FitBit or something similar) as every time you stop with this Garmin, it will beep and stop as you have stopped moving. This device is truly designed for constant movement such as running and biking. Hope this helps.

Don't think it will total miles, however the trip info is pretty good for everyday use. road speed can be set to match your gps or other reference. I'm using it on a diesel motorhome and the only thing disappointing is the MPG, The Scangauge shows about 3+ MPG higher than my actual, calculated the old way. Other than that its is satisfactory for what I need, turbo pressure, water temp, trany temp, & etc.

It should. Everything is predicated on whether you setup the pedometer correctly. In the beginning when you set it up it asks about how long your stride is (among other questions) so it computes things properly. If you enter this information honestly and correctly, it should work like a charm. Good luck and hopefully this helps.

Yes, it should work on a bike and tells you your pace, i.e. 4 minute miles, 5 minute miles, etc. Should be easy math!

When I bought this device I mistakenly assumed it was a gps device. It is more of a glorified pedometer, so I would say it probably does not track bicycling.

This collar will show how far the dog is from the handheld device. I think there is a way to store gps points and track the dog but I don't know how to use that feature if it exists. I think the garmen collar will let you see what you are asking but it doesn't have a combination of ecollar and gps. I hope this helps.

No however you do not get real time tracking, the unit has to be placed in or on the vehicle and then removed and information downloaded post journey.It seems the most reasonable item out there for the money, i.e. once you have paid for it that's it. It does burn through batteries and if the batteries fail half way through a trip then you seem to lose the rest of the data. It works for us doing random vehicle tracking on day journeys, it may not work if used for a several day road trip.
