"Not waterproof Might not work with your fingering technique" Phrasing!
I have to say I've had the bog standard Garmin HRM for 10 years or so now, used several times per week, and it's still working perfectly

Thanks, that's the target. Or I could get a big hat.
The "Idaho Stop" laws allow a cyclist to proceed through a red light when it is safe to do so. They don't legalize what you think they do.
But remember, most people drive huge SUVs now, 2-3 tonnes. Whilst I hold that thought, it mainly seems to be small blonde females behind the wheel...
It's not much of a bollard nor creating a "refuge" if it won't even stop a small sedan. But oh, if they were real bollards SUVs might get damaged...
Don't forget the right to park wherever they choose.
Froth froth froth.
It mounts on the handlebars, so will have no effect on the Climb or vice versa.
