3470 bumps today.

I've found a novel and equally as pointless use for one of those Walkers
walk-o-meters. Put it on your rear brake pipe right by the caliper to
measure the amount of bumps your suspension soaks up.

 

Mine arrived yesterday and I was scared to find out that yesterday I
had taken just 2,400 steps. And today I have taken 3,778 steps.

It's scary when one is supposed to do about 10,000 a day.

10,000 steps is unhealthy. I recorded two months' worth of steps and the
most I accumulated was 6,300 and that included walking round the NEC all
day.

 

Put it on your bike swing arm, go for a ride, take off bike, attach to
self, stagger in 'exhausted'.

 

I do approx 8500 a day without any extra effort - I thought 10 000 was quite
attainable and was if I went to gym or a walk somewhere...

 

I averaged 1,500 - 2,500 but I'm sure it was counting two steps as one.

 

Possibly. I'm still not thin so I think it's all a load of crap regardless.

 

I've put on a few pounds recently and knowing how many steps I've done
hasn't reduced the spare tyre any.

Its not how many, its the way that you do them.

Its why I'm getting inexorably fatter : (

AOL. I can still do my jeans up but my belly's stretching most of my T-
shirts now which looks even more odd because the rest of me is just as
thing as it ever was.

 

I compared my one against another brand and found the Walkers one only
showed a quarter of the count of the other.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Whinging Courier

I see the truck driving training's already started, then.

I didn't get one.
Just wondering - would it fit around the wrist?

P.S. Please excuse the shaky typing.

 

Heh. <BWG>

 

Clip it to a sweat band.

Use a belt for the up'n'downers.

 

Was I the only one that thought this was going to be a birthday post?

 

Made me laugh, that did.

Right, I'm off down the market in a jiffy to get my fag ration. I'll
take the Walk-o-meter and attach it to something on the back of the bike
and report back with how far and how many bumps.

<Goes off to put gear>

Be back in a bit.........

Okie Doky; 10.1km = 1069 bumps. I really didn't expect there to be that
many as I never got over 35mph.

Christ, get me out of here!

 

Ewww... a wank-o-meter.

 

I'm not that old. =:-O

So far I've got;

Bonk-o-meter
Bump-o-meter
Walk-o-meter
Wank-o-meter

Attached to a bit of 4x2 I guess it could make a nice whack-o-meter.
