First Claim
Patent Images
1. A bicycle computer comprising:
- a display;
a position receiver;
a communications module operable to wirelessly communicate with a second bicycle computer of another rider to receive current position and metrics data from the second bicycle computer;
a memory operable to store one or more modules; and
a processing system coupled to the display, position receiver, and memory, the processing system operable to execute the one or more modules to;
determine a current position of the bicycle computer,store metrics data in memory,communicate information to the second bicycle computer, the communicated information including the determined current position and stored metrics data of the bicycle computer, andcause navigation information to be presented by the display, the navigation information including a map, the determined current position of the bicycle computer, and the communicated current position of the second bicycle computer.

11. A method for presenting navigation information on a bicycle computer, the method comprising the steps of:
-
a) determining, using a processing system associated with the bicycle computer and coupled to a position receiver, a current position of the bicycle computer, wherein the processing system is operable to execute one or more modules stored in a memory; b) storing, using the processing system, metrics data in the memory; c) wirelessly communicating, using the processing system coupled with a communications module, with a second bicycle computer of another rider to receive current position and metrics data from the second bicycle computer; d) wirelessly communicating, using the processing system coupled with a communications module, information to the second bicycle computer, wherein the communicated information includes the determined current position and stored metrics data of the bicycle computer; and e) causing, using the processing system and a display associated with the bicycle computer, navigation information to be presented by the display, wherein the presented navigation information includes a map, the determined current position of the bicycle computer, and the communicated current position of the second bicycle computer. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
