Must remember my Frock!

But I will have a few things with me, like a puncture repair kit, first aid kit, Laptop (for plugging into my bike - don't ask), plus some extras like chain wax. All takes up room.

With my bike running the PC5 and Autotune pays to have it with me, although I scored off a mate a netbook, so small enough to carry fairly easily with me.

What software are you using, if you want to save yourself the hassle I will have mine with me, you are more than welcome to use it, i can pre load software on there.

No you were right, Grant and I were concerned we had to bring women's clothing to wear.

Wait, if its a self leaning device, how is it running the wrong map? Bit of a contradiction in terms methinks
