    It all depends on which Tim is up and running.

    How does it work? You put a transponder on your bike and then it all happens by magic.

    If you have not bought one, you will have to hire one from John $20 or $30 I think

    I think enough people have bought that John is no real hurry to sell any more. I think 15 or 20 got sold.
    If you decide you want to buy one talk to him.

    They let a first timer rider without one in B grade last month, but he didn't get any points and may as well not have been on track safari as the results go. Might be a hard sell in A grade, where you belong.

    Talked to Wendy about them when I was down last time and they have none left to sell. Didn't sound like that are planning on getting any more any time soon, and the discount they got wasn't huge.

    When I had a look round last month I think the cheapest place to get them is from the UK (shipping may kill it though) I need to do something myself, bit am nit exactly flush with cash at the moment either.

    Now the question is, do I take the wets off the bike for the weekend or just leave it set up as it is.

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

    Take the wets off, it's going to be fine (says the guy with no wets for his half a tricycle)

    No need for wets on tricycles, (Drift trike) But a man with a tyre groover could be handy !
