Happy to be ending this month on a good note.
Sent the damaged Karoo 3 back on Tuesday. A brand new boxed unit with all accessories included arrived on Saturday. Hammerhead gave me 50% off the RRP. The additional bracket, 1/4 turn mount, charging cable and lanyard were all a welcome bonus. They’re worth £52.00 when bought separately. Free P&P for the return and replacement. Pretty good service in my books.
I bought a gel bumper case to help protect it and had this ready and waiting when it arrived. Screen protectors are in transit. All I need to be now is a bit more careful.
It’s been a very good month on the mileage front…
Yesterdays ride made my yearly Eddington number (km) a personal best since the year I first started logging my rides…

For a smaller niche interest group (you’re on RWGPS, interested in the stats above, and okay about using Python scripts and CLI apps) I wrote about how they’re generated in this post. The code for the Cycling Stats CLI is on GitHub.
