I've actually got to the point this year where I gave up tracking training miles and just go out and ride, often without a computer. I still train hard I just don't care so much about all the data.
+1 about the battery problem My Avocet 20 goes through batteries in just a few months. The problem is, the batteries that we used back in the 80's are not available anymore and the equivalent new ones do not last as long. I remember my batteries lasting over a year back in the 80's in my Avocet 20. My 20 is still dead since the batteries ran out earlier this year. I like you just don't have the time to keep replacing them. Maybe it's time ti finally retire the good ole 20 on my Peugeot??
