I know some of the folks on this list like “retro” stuff, so here’s something I spotted on my ride today:


I used to own one of these back in the early 80s—in fact, I think it was my first cyclocomputer. It was simple, and it only allowed you to input a handful of wheel sizes (not the exact diameter of your wheels), but it was a sturdy little unit. Still, I’m surprised to see one actually in use—certainly a testament to the robust design from CatEye’s engineers.

Haha.  Very good find.  My mom handed me a box of my old stuff in her house, and my old CC-1000 was in there.  I put in two new AA batteries (you heard me!) and it fired right up.  I'm not sure what I'll do with it, but I'm keeping it.
