If you've got a BlackBerry great news Lance Armstrong is going to help save you from yourself.

Don't panic he's not going to come round to your house and make you ditch your favourite piece of convergent mobile technologies all wrapped up in one BlackBerry shaped package and instead making you actually talk to people … would that necessarily make you a better person anyway.

No his Livestrong foundation have just released a new application for the BlackBerry which calculates how many calories you should be burning a day and how many you are actually burning.
It costs a couple of dollars and here a video demonstration of the Livestrong Calorie Tracker

Wonder if they'll do one for the iPhone? Not that I've got one of those either

road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.
