I switched to GPS computers a few years ago. I like having just one computer that goes from bike to bike without the need to calibrate for wheel size.
Prior to GPS, I had a computer for each bike, so what you see on my bike is actually part of an overall “simpler” cycling lifestyle. GPS computers are also great for randonneuring, particularly with the ability to load courses and get reminders when a turn is coming up (great at night or when sleep-deprived). --Eric Norris [email protected] www.campyonly.com campyonlyguy.blogspot.com > On Aug 29, 2016, at 6:55 PM, franklyn <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, Eric, > > Interesting exercise.
