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.
congratulations to Jared and Romeu :) better luck for me next giveaway :)
Congrats Jared and Romeu! Thanks again Ray and Clever Training – love your work!
Wow, thank you so much! I have been participating in these giveaways for some time now, glad I got this one. I’m hoping this watch can help me introduce some running in my cycling-only regime.
Keep up the excellent work Ray!
Hey Ray
I really enjoy your website and blogs.
Cheers
Mark
Congratulations to Jared & Romeu Gaspar.
Funny, you call Romeu an international winner, while Portugal is a lot closer to you nowadays :D
My ballot had a hanging chad :-)
Bitter.
Ray,
Wanted to let you know of my great experience with Clever Training. I finally broke down and bought the Garmin 910 heading into Ironman Arizona. In my haste, I forgot to add the DCR10BTF discount code and paid full price. Once I realized my mistake, I sent a email, and within the hour, received a response from them that they would credit my card for the discount – which they did.
Thanks again for all you do. I’ll continue to use them for future purchases, such as my replacement 910, as the previous version currently rests at the bottom of Tempe Town Lake.
Awesome, that’s great to hear! Thanks for dropping the note, I appreciate it (and they do to!).
Congrats to your winners.
Yay, my wife is going to be happy!
Congratz to the happy few!
And what are your own picks for 2013 races? Any french ones? Have you got your ticket for the LD world championships in Belfort next june? Are you gonna go there and do some of your awesome trademark photographs? Would be my pleasure to meet the girl and you IRL =)
Congrats to the winners, however I think so long as Ray keeps posting we’re all winners. Great job Ray.
What???? It came to Portugal and I’m not the winner!!!!
I would never guess there was more than me has your reader.
Well maybe next time!
Merry Christmas to everyone.
I want one for Xmas !!
