LOST: Garmin Edge 1000 in a red silicone case. Fell off my bike in the downtown Bethesda area on Sunday.
Thanks, Jessica H.

I’m sorry I’m not any help for finding your Garmin, but just wanted to offer a little advice for everyone else-

Load your personal info onto your Garmin, either at the startup screen:

Or if you have an older unit (like me)- load a text file into the memory! Last year, I found an older Edge on the side of the W&OD. It had been there for a WHILE!!! After taking it home, I remembered this tip and checked the files. Sure enough, the owner had loaded her info! She had lost it a couple months before!

I have a P-touch label maker. I simply made a label for my Garmin with my contact info. The labels are quite weatherproof. I’ve done the same thing with my phone and most of my other belongings.
