Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Cheapest HRM around?

I'm looking for a cheap HRM so i can take my resting HR when i wake up in the morning.

Sitting up, putting on that COLD strap, and then adjusting it until it reads are not my idea of fun, nor am I resting when the ordeal is over.

I've just been using my pulse and a watch, but sue me, I'm lazy, and I'd rather just put my thumb on a button and read it off a screen.

Any ideas? So far the cheapest ones i can find are at performance for around $30. I was wondering if any other venues (old people, diabetics, ??) might have them cheaper

Thanks
B.

Ive got a used Mio I'd make you a good deal on if you cant find something cheaper. I used the Mio for about 8 months and then switched to a Polar.
