+1 On Cyclometer. I have been using it for a couple of years. Its a really great app. I like that I can set voice announcements to alert me of my average speed, top speed , distance, ETC or what ever I want, when ever I want. Very flexible.
You can also buy blue tooth heart monitors and cadence sensors. BTW....Each app has all the modes built into it. I.E. my Cyclometer also has walking, running , skiing, mountain biking, ETC. You only need one app. Chuck On Monday, July 30, 2012 4:09:04 PM UTC-7, Andy Lane wrote: > > Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you all know there is now a group of > fitness training apps which have now been made accessible.
