Polar data transfer advice required

I have a Polar S725 monitor and will be away for a weeks training next
year so am trying to think of different ways to keep the information.

It depends how many inputs you're recording, what the sample rate is,
and how much riding you'll be doing. I would think you could easily
record a week's worth of training all on the watch if you're prepared
to loose some detail.

If you have access to the web whilst away, you could consider uploading
to https://www.polarcyclingcoach.com/

The ideal way would be to store the info on my windows smart phone
using the mobile link. I have contacted polar and they have no plans
to use any other manufacturer apart from Nokia, I am not going to buy
a new phone so has anyone been able to transfer info to their smart
phone for storage and retrieve it at a later date?

Any suggestions you guys have are welcome.

Thanks
Jamie

I record 2 weeks of data (12 days training) on mine every year in
Mallorca. Just reduce the sampling rate down. RTM, it will show how
much memory it uses depending on the sampling rate and which functions
you have turned on.

If you cycle 7 days for 8 hours a day, thats 56hours
of data - record at a rate of 60s and you'll have no
problem even if you have the power sensor and all options
turned on...
