Real world testing. So you don't have to.

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Real world testing. So you don't have to.

1) Will a first generation garmin heart rate strap w/ battery survive and still function after a washing machine cycle on cold, delicate wash w/ single scoop of detergent?

Yes. sample size = 1, trials = 1

2) Will the buckle of a Bell Sweep helmet paid for at full price at LBS and only worn for one month survive the impact of a rear hatch of 2002 Nissan Xterra?

No. sample size = 1, trials = 1

3) If a girl asks how she looks in a particular pair jeans. the correct answer is apparently something other than 'i think they look okay'

You Sir are a treasure trove of helpiness!

And regarding number three, it's dangerous walking the high wire without a net.
