Back up to 7th in Perth on BikeJournal

I started using BikeJournal in January and initially started storming up the rankings (not that I’m competitive). Time off the family and a couple of prolonged injuries saw me a slip a little, but I noticed today I’m starting to do well again. I suspect because the others ‘around’ me are fair weather cyclists!

MotionX – Elevation Issue

My Garmin seemed to come to life when playing around yesterday, so this morning I thought I’d
A. See if it would work for a whole commute
B. Compare it’s data to that of MotionX
The results are interesting, but reinforce my concerns that the elevation from MotionX is complete rubbish. I’ll email the developer to see if [...]

MotionX – Review

In my previous post I wrote about the demise of my Garmin Edge 305. While I’m waiting upon Garmin to help me resolve this issue one way or the other, I need another means of logging my rides. Of course the other device I have with a GPS is my iPhone. I’ve bought several [...]

Assuming you’ve registered and got your account up and running, you’re presented with a neat home screen showing an array of facts. There’s a list of the most recent rides (from all riders not just yourself), some [...]

Rubitrack – Review

Continuing my series of reviews of the major cycling log solutions this review focuses on Rubitrack for OSX from toolsFactory software. Rubitrack is the last of the desktop based solutions I bought after it’s release late in 2008. Aesthetically it’s very pleasing indeed using a candy like UI.
Like most if not all of the desktop [...]

Cyclogz – Review

Continuing my series of reviews of solutions for training logs, this review is of Cyclogz. Like BikeJournal it’s web based, but is a new kid on the block. Firstly I should point out that developer Subbu Allamaraju declares the site as still alpha so this should be taken into consideration when reading this review and [...]
