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.
ill try it next time i’m in paris… this tuesday if I have the time before the flight! ;-)
If I get to Paris I’ll make a turn, good luck
I am so coming to Paris!
Both my Wife and my Son loves cakes (and Paris) and so do I. My wife would be quite surprised that I’ll manage to furfill her passion for cakes trough my passion of running since she is always complaining how my running world is boring and stuff :)
See you in Paris sometime in the Future
Do you guys need a good PR Agency in Paris?
2 friends of mine can maybe help you for the publicity ;)

Nice one, i need a cakes place in paris :)
Congratulations! All the best on your new endeavor!
Cool Ray, very exciting, does the girl speak French? If not, this could be interesting.
Congratulations! This is exciting! Wishing you and the girl all the success!
Like they say in Paris (and some other parts in the world as well): Bonne chance!
DEFINITELY dropping by next time in Paris. I actually do come by Paris from time to time, DC on the other hand is quite a trip from Sweden. Best of luck!
Wow, a block from Notre Dame! I’ll be stopping in for some mini cakes in April.
So very cool! Congrats!
I am so happy for you! How surreal it must feel to make your dreams come true in Paris!
Will Bertie’s have overnight shipping to the US?
i am jealous of your life
I have to change TGV’s in Paris on Oct 7th, and again on Oct 11th, with an hour to spare.
Will I be able to grab a cupcake then?
Hmm, maybe, though, I think you might miss us by a day or two! :( But hit us up when you’re closer. We’ll likely have test samples that day. :)

Sent the girls around yesterday for a cup cake while they are in Paris. Alas the shop was closed. Maybe they’ll get back there before the leave on friday.
Made it lol
Called in whilst we were in Paris this week on the recommendation of hubby (“Steely”) who has been following your blog for a while. Met Bertie. She’s lovely! Have now been twice and hope to go again tomorrow before we leave. Can highly recommend the salted caramel ones though the choc and vanilla ones got a great report from my mum and daughter!
will be in Paris for spring break -April 9-12. Look forward to some decadent cupcake eating.
