It hasn't stopped snowing this year ....


Isn't this weather amazing! I haven't been able to go out on the bike for weeks and try out my new Garmin bike sat nav. Actually, that is not quite true. Today, I went out for a walk with my Ventus route logger, my digital camera and the Garmin sat nav. Amazing devices!

I plotted my route using mapping software on my laptop and I then exported the route to the Garmin. The Garmin guided me whilst the Ventus route logger recorded the walk. At the same time I took photographs during the walk.

The amazing aspect of all this is that I downloaded the data on the Ventus route logger to my laptop, attached all the photographs to the data and it then plots the route on a map and shows the pictures at the various points during the walk.

Amazing technology don't you think? I'll be using this technology on my charity cycle ride!
