Cycle computer/data recorder

Sky Fly said:

Just wondering, does anyone know if there exists a
computer that will not only record your
current/max/average speed, distance, etc. but can take
periodic snapshots of your current distance, time elapsed
and current speed and save all this info to a solid state
memory device? Then you can download all the info to a
computer and view a log of your ride at your leisure.

There is a product called Bikebrain which turns a Palm PDA
into a cycle computer and thus you can pretty much do
anything you want with the data. Probably overkill if you
don't already own a Palm but it doesn't exactly need a
modern all-singing all-dancing PDA.

Cateye has the CC-TR100 apparently due out in June The blurb
says it includes: Current Speed Average Speed Trip Time
Total distance Current Heart rate Average Heart rate Calorie
Consumption Current cadence Average cadence Total pedal
revolutions and "many many more"

and also....

"The TR100 also includes a full range of lap counter
oriented functions for maximum information feedback. The
five window display can show six different readouts as well
as recording training data in a choice of 1, 5, 10 or 30
second intervals with a memory of up to 150 hours." "This
information can then be downloaded to a PC or Mac using the
optional download kit for a full review of training data.
Alternatively the TR100 can be connected to a computer
during turbo training for real time data gathering." "Other
unique features include a back light, coded wireless heart
rate transmitter, four heart rate zones, one cadence zone
and a remote button for ease of use as standard"

£199.99

Sheesh.

Have you considered a cheap GPS ?

You would be able to transfer the GPS track to your PC and
use it to obtain the information you want.

My Polar S710 does all that, and makes pretty graphs
of it too!

Ebuyer have some PalmIIIxe (£35 +VAT) going very cheap which
would be an ideal PDA for such an exercise.

Now replaced by the Polar S720i apparently.

I must admit I hadn't realised that there were so many good
cycle computers out there now. Rather puts my 8 function (I
think) halfords cycle computer in the shade!
