I have just the coolest new gadget. It is a Garmin Forerunner 205 designed for runners and cyclists, but lots of fun for trail riding. It records time, pace and distance and if I ever figure out how to do it, I'll be able to trace our route with the built in GPA and save it on my PC.
So I now know that in the last three days I've ridden 18 miles ... lots of climbing here so those are a pretty slow 18 miles. I so love technology. Nancy
