Current Equipment:
Data:
Garmin Edge 500, with cadence/speed sensor used for cycling metrics. This thing has been a real workhorse, it just works, and well. Owned it for getting on two years now, and until recently used it for all my cycling and running data. Having the need for checking HR on the go has meant investing in the Timex Ironman watch though.
Timex Ironman Global Trainer watch for running metrics. I don't fully trust it yet, but seems competent at what it does. Gets signal fast, and does what I want it to while letting me check HRM data on the run. 
Casio watch for swim times! 
Garmin Connect, and Strava for data collection and storage

Now have a Garmin 910xt which I use for running and swimming which is great.


Bikes:
2010 Giant Defy Advanced 3 Road Bike, owned since early 2012 has been fantastic throughout. Used for occasional commute and road cycling through all weathers. No real changes to the original spec, save for a few sets of wheels, and clip on tri bars. Now upgraded slightly with new 105 shifters, carbon stem and bars. Also has a set of 50mm carbon tubs.






2012 Boardman Elite AiR TT 9.4, Bought late 2012 for Ironman and other 2013 triathlons. Only ridden in anger on the road once which was an eye opener for my position! 
Update as of April I've now got quite a few 50+ miles under my belt on the TT bike, and am much much happier with my position. Looking forward to my first 10 mile TT to see what I can really do. Although unfortunately this is scheduled for a Sunday, the day after my long ride for the week. So my legs will certainly not be at their best.   



The boardman has now been sold and replaced with a 2014 Cervelo P3 Ultegra.
