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.

Timewastingly addictive reading when I should be out cycling – still, added your RSS feed now.
This sounds like a pretty great scale! Thanks for the giveaway chance.
Count me in from the Netherlands @WebHaaZ. Your review about the edge 500 kicked ass.
Here`s my comment.
You write great reviews.
Count me in for one entry. I love your blog! Thanks for doing this and for giving some of us newbies inspiration to take our training to the next level.
Count me in for 2 entries! Working on the third entry ASAP.
It’ll complement my RJ45 equipped stovetop wonderfully

Very helpful site. I’d love to win this! Thanks.
Though it´s quite late – I´m in (one entry only). And I´d like to add a question / suggestion as you seem to be well connectet with Garmin… Regarding the multisport mode of the 310XT unit – wouldn´t it be nice to have a “special” workout name (e.g. “multisport”) which works combined with multisport mode? I.e. a freely programmable training – except that using the “lap” button would change mode according to multisport settings. I would like to use it with a timetable with different speeds for different parts of an Ironman marathon…
btw – I really like your blog :-)
OHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Blog – great giveaway!
Only blog I read. Thanks!
Awesome! Thanks for the giveaway! 2 entries here…
Positive Comment for you and Clever Training Ray.
I was going to buy the Smart Body Analyzer and was also considering a swim MP3 player.
After reading both this review and Finish, I headed to Clever Training to support the Blog; unfortunately, I forgot to enter the discount code when I paid for the two products.
The next day when I realized my error, I contacted their customer support via email and explained the situation and they applied the discount to my credit card and said thanks for supporting the Blog and the Store!
You’ve partnered with some great individuals on that one!
Great to hear. Thanks for the support of the site!
