PG: So are you measuring distance on the bike the same (semi-bogus) way as when running? :-)

PBricker: Forerunner: 40.15; Sportstrack: 40.19. I think the GPS is pretty accurate (i.e. non-semi-bogus) on the bike. The figures it gives are also very close to the careful GMaps pedometer readings I've done for some routes. The four or five times I got stuck at a light, I stopped the watch a bit before I stopped, and started the watch a bit after I started. So add another tenth of a mile to the total!
Might be fun to do a route together (yours or mine) to see if the competitive juices could make for a faster time.

Fun? Isn't the correct adjective "painful?"
