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 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.
Er – I hate to point it out, but the numbers are backwards. Regardless, thanks for your generosity (even if I failed to win)!

Thank you Ray
Congrats JC!
Ray, any news about the CT alternative for Europeans?
missed his sunday run? hopefully he doesn’t find a way to go out and buy a bunch of pizza with this ;)
You mean I lost out due to some silly atmospheric noise randomness, even after sending Ray my $20 bribe? All I get is a worthless bag of gold icon? Jerome better become a paying member with some of his new found wealth! Congrats Jerome, I’m not bitter. wink,wink
I should have won, the gods of Rome are punishing you with lightnings and rain, Just kidding sorry for the weather. If you are near, and rain proof, go at fontana di Trevi dhe best way to enjoy it without the hundreds other people. And every body is going to say Giolitti, for icecreams but I will say Grom 40m from Giolitti best hazelnut ever and they make a pretty good hot chocolate too.
Damn! For a sec, I thought it was me, Jerome C ,,, but understood that it was an another one :) Congrats Jerome C as well as Ray for this regular giveaway generosity!
Congratulations Jerome!
Uuu, so this is what being ~25h too early feels like…
