5 Easy Steps To The Site
1
In Depth Product Reviews
You probably stumbled upon here looking for a review of a sports gadget. If you’re trying to decide which unit to buy – check out my in-depth reviews section. Some reviews are over 60 pages long when printed out, with hundreds of photos! I aim to leave no stone unturned.

Read My GPS Recommendations.
Here’s my most recent gadget recommendations guide (2012) – covering almost every category of sports gadgets out there. Looking for the equipment I use day to day? I also just put together my complete 2012 ‘Gear I Use’ equipment list, from swim to bike to run and everything in between (plus a few extra things). And to compliment that, here’s The Girl’s (my wife’s) list. Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!

Understand technology and sport in the How-To Guides.
I enjoy explaining new things to folks – especially showing people how to get the most from their gadgets. Here’s an ongoing list of “How to” guides.

Read my Top 25 most useful posts.
It turns our I’ve written a fair bit of stuff over the past few years – and after it disappears from my front page, a lot of it never really sees the light of day again without Google’ing skillz. Or a photographic memory…which I don’t have. I’ve taken a look back and found stuff that…continues to find a trickle of readers via web searches or forum links.

Have some fun in the travel section.
I travel a fair bit, both for work and for fun. Here’s a bunch of random trip reports and daily trip-logs that I’ve put together and posted. I’ve sorted it all by world geography, in an attempt to make it easy to figure out where I’ve been.

Riding along in a fog
Before we get to my foggy ride, we’ll start with my trail run. Coach and I made a last second change of venue to Prince William Forest National Park, instead of Fountainhead. The reason was that he came up with … Read More Here
Lions, Tigers and (more) Gadgets…oh my!
This weekend was (and still is, three-day weekend after all!) packed! Been busy doing lots of stuff. First up on Saturday morning was a 10K race, one that was actually held on my very own street. Crazy! But I’m gonna … Read More Here
Less than a week away…final training ensues!
With my ‘A’ race, Boise 70.3, being next weekend I’m now in the final stretch and full-on taper. Though, taper doesn’t mean couch surfing and cheese sticks, but instead reduced mileage. I always enjoy taper workouts though, mostly because the … Read More Here
Flight, Run, Soccer, Bike…oh, and tailgate.
A busy weekend was in store…but first, I had to get myself home from a brief 24 hours in Charlotte. Actually, I think it was more like 22 hours to be exact. Either way, a 45 minute flight is so … Read More Here
Swimming, crazy man, Tunebugs and Crabs
The weekend started Friday night with a nice continuous swim in a fairly empty Olympic sized swimming pool. That’s the nice thing about Friday’s…the pool is always empty. I continue to play with both the Swimsense and the Pool-Mate Pro … Read More Here
Enjoying a weekend back in the country
I finally got to enjoy a weekend of Washington DC focused training…and it was great! Beyond that there was of course much cooking around the house – though none of which I was doing, but rather, The Girl was busy … Read More Here
Baptizing the new bike
I was going to post about all sorts of things this weekend, from the way-too-hot run, to swimming to making homemade pizzas at home. But…then my new bike came in. And all that went out the window! After my other … Read More Here
