Description
The BBS Power Targets data field displays an athlete's race plan power targets in real-time as the athlete progresses through the course.

– Yes: if you will ride up to and through the plan’s starting point.
– No: if you won’t pass through the plan’s starting point before starting.

TROUBLESHOOTING
