Garmen GPS on a bent - was Newbie speedometer problem

I have a Garmin GPSMAP 60C, but I have not found a bicycle
mount for it yet. It looks similar to other models that do
have available bicycle mounts, but I am not sure they would
work just from an online listing. Anybody know?

It also has only roads in it, no bike routs or paths. Is
there another map product for Garmen that adds this detail?

Still seems like a beast to use all the time, and having a
bike specific odometer is good too.

I have been waiting for RAM to come out with a mount for the
60c before buying one. I use a Garmin eMap with a Ram mount
on the handle bars of my Bacchetta Strada.

Call TV Nav the number is on www.tvnav.com if anyone knows
if the RAM mount is availible for that unit he does.

The answer to bike routes is no. Most bike routes are built
on old rail roads, the maps show the rails.

GPS odometers do not need and can not be calibrated.

I made bicycle mount for my Venture by using old CatEye light base with some rubber bands! Works perfect. If you are going to use GPS as speedometer you do not need maps. For unmapped trail you can eassly make your own map with your GPS
