Has anyone had an experience with their Garmin doing a spontaneous reset mid-ride? Over the course of this summer, it has happened to me about 4 times. It beeps, and when I look down, it’s doing a reset. When the reset is complete, it returns me to the current ride, and I just have to unpause (which means there is a gap in the data).

As an aside, any time I have called for Canadian support, I end up speaking with the Canadian distributor - and I find them to be totally useless. I wish I could speak with Garmin directly.

Garmin service has been amazing to me (and many others) - they offered a swap for another unit when I had a weird issue, so I’d say to try and reach out to them again
