It would be a good watch, even though a low cost in real terms even at that price would be out of reach for some in todays climate energy bills going up again January etc etc

I suppose if it's the only racing you do it probably works out pretty reasonable really, if you worked it out over a year I bet some of us aren't far off of spending that in normal club racing which for most of us there is very little, if any return.
