A bicycle computer. Hackable. Open source software. Off the shelf hardware.

ARM microcontroller, 100% Rust, Bluetooth (not yet).

I have had a bike computer nearly 3 decades ago, but the dream to have the distance counter reset automatically has remained unfulfilled. I could either get a fixed-function calculator or 100% closed overpowered gadget. Why can't I have some fun myself?!?

Thankfully, now we have cheap, reverse-engineered smart watches. I found a pretty decent, sunlight-readable one, and now I'm hacking away!

The big TODO is speeding up development by switching from TockOS to RTIC, and implementing a minimal Bluetooth Low Enegy stack.

Currently on hiatus because it's bike season and I'd rather spend my time outside :)



> (slang) an exclamation of excitement — ale jazda! — radical!

very clever lol
