New badges for GroupRides on Edge devices

Image
Garmin has added  5 new badges for GroupRides.  Let’s Ride , Record your first GroupRide cycling activity. Together We Ride , Record 10 GroupRide cycling activities. Group Effort , Record 25 GroupRide cycling activities. Cyclo Squad , Record 100 GroupRide cycling activities. In the Peloton , Record 200 GroupRide cycling activities. You need an Edge 540, 840, 1040, 1050 or Explore 2. I believe you can do the GroupRides on your own so you don't have to actually ride in a group. Just start the GroupRide and it will count for the badges. I currently don't see any workaround for devices that don't support the GroupRide feature.
