What is a "non-cycling computer"?

What is your budget?

How long are you planning on riding? Do you own a smartphone? The battery-life problem can be solved using a cheap external battery. Wet conditions would still be a problem. You can get waterproof cases but those won't be waterproof when charging.

Your alternative is a handheld (hiking) GPS.
