Hello,
I have an ELEMNT BOLT V2 GPS BICYCLE COMPUTER. Now I’m planning a longer bike tour with breaks. The bike computer stays on. Can you turn off the bolt to save power and then reactivate it to continue recording?
Best regards

Hey mate, i have the same computer and used it for a recent trip.
I was lazy (and wanted to go off track at points), so had my main route (1500km or so) as one long file. I would turn it off every night and every morning turn it on, load my route and start recording again. The computer would take a min to realize i wasn’t at the start of the route and would complain until it worked it out and navigation would continue as normal. Each day was saved as a different file in the history, but that was fine by me, i believe there are tools online that can stitch all the files into a single one once you get back home if that’s what you prefer.
Hope this helps :)
Hi Kirca,
thank you for your replay. how can you resume the track?
When you load your route again on day 2 it asks “would you like to be routed back to the start”, if you select ‘no’ and continue to ride the route, it will figure out that you’re continuing on and provide directions accordingly.
Just be sure you know whicg direction you’re heading when you rejoin your path, because the computer will send you back the way you came if you’re not paying attention
In addition to what has been said before, you can just turn the wahoo off mid tracking and it will restore the route on powering on. Takes a few minutes though. That’s what my Roam v1 does, anyway.
