It seems like every time November rolls around, my fitness bug kicks into action. I’ve just finished planning next season (fingers, toes, arms and legs firmly crossed for a place in the Étape) and, because I can, I’ve been dallying with the various gizmos available to fitness-minded design nerd.

Myself, I’m a Garmin man; I’m a particular fan of stealing other people’s riding routes and getting to race them watching them disappear into the distance through the Virtual Partner feature. And the huge infographic geek in me just loves the route player.
