Just curious as to what you guys are using for tracking your rides on local rides and trips to western NC?  It’s been years since I’ve looked into tracking my rides.

I'm not to concerned about a little discrepancy in mileage so I use my running watch.  My wife uses a Garmin 130 with speed sensor and it seems to work really well!

Garmin watch with wheel speed sensor is a great way to go.  You get heart rate, GPS and wheel speed all on your wrist.  I have used two different ones and they work well.   

I have also used the strava phone app and strava apple watch app but prefer the garmin watch. 
On a side note why was the apple watch never called an iWatch or iWristGadgetThingy

The newer Garmins are nice with the built in trail forks.  Good for those Pisgah rides when one missed turn can make for a very long day.
