Read My Sports Gadget Recommendations.
Here’s my most recent GPS watch guide here, and cycling GPS computers here. Plus there are smart trainers here, all in these guides cover almost every category of sports gadgets out there. Looking for the equipment I use day-to-day? I also just put together my complete ‘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!

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.

My Photography Gear: The Cameras/Drones/Action Cams I Use Daily
The most common question I receive outside of the “what’s the best GPS watch for me” variant, are photography-esq based. So in efforts to combat the amount of emails I need to sort through on a daily basis, I’ve complied this “My Photography Gear” post for your curious minds (including drones & action cams!)! It’s a nice break from the day-to-day sports-tech talk, and I hope you get something out of it!

The Swim/Bike/Run Gear I Use List
Many readers stumble into my website in search of information on the latest and greatest sports tech products. But at the end of the day, you might just be wondering “What does Ray use when not testing new products?”. So here is the most up to date list of products I like and fit the bill for me and my training needs best! DC Rainmaker 2023 swim, bike, run, and general gear list. But wait, are you a female and feel like these things might not apply to you? If that’s the case (but certainly not saying my choices aren’t good for women), and you just want to see a different gear junkies “picks”, check out The Girl’s Gear Guide too.
I am getting hungry!
Just so you know, I love all of your “food” posts like this one and would love to see more of them. I am wondering though, can you share the recipe for the biscottis, or is that one super-secret too?
Yup, sorry about that. Just edited the link to show the source of that recipe:

What? No pumpkin pancakes? I’m highly disappointed. The pumpkin spread looks good, I’m going t have to give that a try. I make an uber yummy pumpkin/turkey bacon/jalapeno soup. Tastes better then it sounds.
Mmm… pie.
My mom loves your blog and thinks you are some man-bot who has infinate time on his hands.
This will only be an argument for her side.
Wow…I just got hungry for pie.
Yum! I shouldn’t have read this before I ate breakfast though…will you post your bread and pancake recipe once you make ’em?!
Baked pumpkin seeds alone are good :)
This pumpkin thing is beyond me, but then if you don’t like it that’s the best starting point!
A+ on the photography though!
wow, it all looks amazing. i’m so impressed that you make the time to cook all of that…
Do you ever sleep??
Mmmmm, bagels.
Pumpkin bagels?
You in town for turkey day?
Very impressive, You could have your own you tube cooking show…
A co-Worker brought in pumpkin bread with chocolate in it…delicious.
I know I’m a man…and already married… maybe its just the caloric restriction that I’m doing…but….
Do you want to get MARRIED?????
This is awesome. I’m getting fat on pumpkin muffins and pumpkin pie and pumpkin pancakes (with chocolate chips, natch) around here lately, so it’s time for me to diversify a bit. That smoothie looks great.
Yay, the long-awaited pumpkin post! I’m definitely making that pumpkin cream cheese this weekend.
well i can see that nothing much has changed in my absence. you’re still insane!
Man you are a chefs you should consider open a Restaurant
hows the taper
good luck
My mouth is watering, it all looks so good!
YOU WON!!! CONGRATS!!!
Perfect!!! Now I’ve got some ideas for Thanksgiving and a big dinner this weekend. Though I don’t have a BlendTech…but I’m sure I’ll manage. ;)
Nice job!
Thanks for the link. Will definitely make some of the biscottis for Thanksgiving!
This is the second blog I’ve read tonight where someone cooked a pumpkin.
Could this be some sort of sign that I need to do the same?
Wow –
I’d like to see some more commentary about how some of this turned out, especially the Pumpkin Smoothie.
The idea of sticking the pumpkin pie chunks into the pumpkin ice cream is sheer genious.
p.s. you missed something. I had pumpkin risotto last night…yummmmm!
