Cycling Jerseys that make a statement!

Just came upon a website called Cycling Jerseys That Make a Statement. If you really want to make somebody notice what you stand for (or wouldn't stand for), just put it up on your riding jerseys. Just make sure that they are legal!

Polar CS600 for Cyclists

My latest ride yesterday recorded a distance of 21km, average speed of 18.2km/h, average HR of 144bpm, 87.1% within target zone, burnt 971 kcal and a duration of 1:09:16. It was fairly warm weather at 33 degrees Centigrade. I shall need to plan my rides and my rest more closely as I will be quite busy during the weekend. The Polar CS600 comes in handy to help reorganise my training.

Here are some photos of the cycling computer system which would give you Heart Rate (HR), % Heart Rate Max (HRM), Cadence, Speed, Distance, Exercise Zones, Calories, Heart Rate Variability and Fitness Testing. Just takes some time to read the manual and utilise each item. I am getting some help from the Polar distributor to commission the device. The graphs are really impressive. I like the fact that it warns me if I'm overdoing it with a beeping sound and tells me speed in min/km and km/h.

GPS Device for you: GARMIN Edge 605

I've just seen this GPS receiver suitable for planning your cycling routes while you cycle to work. The GARMIN Edge 605 is available at the outlets of Premier GPS and retailing at RM1900. It is the size of a cellular phone and has a micro SD card which is suitable for uploading maps. You can read more about the specifications and reviews.
