The cyclist iPhone app: PedalBrain

I haven't been riding my bike a lot lately. Mainly because it's winter now, but also because of the fact that I want to spend as much time as possible with my son. But maybe this can get me back on my bike in the spring time.

I have tried several GPS tracking devices when riding my bike: GPSKit, Trails, GPSies and RunKeeper. Especially the last one is a great app, but they are still initially created for runners or hikers.

Today however I discovered the existence of the PedalBrain iPhone app. It looks very nice, has integration with ANT+ enabled devices and I immediately fell for the Carbon Fiber mount that can be mounted on the steerer tube. An yeah, it's still a prototype but I would definitively buy it. Off course it also has a website where you can analyze your workouts. This is how they describe the product:

Pedal Brain can be thought of as three integrated products. First, it's an iPod and iPhone ANT+ accessory. Second, it's a complete training log. Third, it's a coaching platform.

If you want to find out more about this promising looking app check out their website.
