Here are some instructions for building yourself a pretty simple bike computer using readily available materials (provided you’re an electronics guru) and free tools.
The thing is, the computer is simple, but the building part assuredly is not. Best of luck to any intrepid non-electrical-engineer-types that embark upon this hacktastic journey. It is not for the faint of heart. At this point, I’ll continue to buy my computers pre-built.

I’m with you Bren. Doesn’t seem close to worth the effort to build your own. I followed your link and was a bit gobsmacked to see 11 chapters of geek stuff.
Also I wouldn’t want to get caught out on a rainy day using this.

For a bit less hard core version, one might try the “VeloAce”, which is a bike computer software for Palm OS.
