Reviewing Cycling Logs

Electronic log books

Cyclistat and BikeJournal.com reviews

I’ve spent some time Friday and Saturday playing with these two options for a paper log book. Clearly you aren’t going to keep this kind of detail on paper. Things you never thought of doing before are suddenly simple with the computer.

That doesn’t mean you want all that data. If you are a team cyclist, you likely have a team coach who wants you to record data his way with his tools. All these programs have the same flaw–just becasue I can.

I’m pretty satisfied with Runner’s Log on my palm but the desktop version isn’t really up to speed so I’m looking for another way to track my mileage. I really don’t look at the charts and graphs I already have and I’m not sure I want to share my ride data with the world either.

But I have years of data that I don’t want to lose either. Any program I settle on will have to allow me to import my data so I can compare years.

I’m still looking.

PS: the page linked is still in beta and not in the menu system yet. The only way to reach it is from the link above.
