Thanks for that,

Hope I bring my 0.17 consistancy from the previous Friday with me

Yes and when it eventually comes in, you can't find it when you need it

I think Scotty bought “talent in a can” off eBay and used it yesterday at Ryde but just run out of it before jumps. Gotta find good one as cheap one tends to run out half way though race.

HI used to run 540, but I believe he's taken the plunge and moved to 17.5

I’ve never run 21.5 in blinky mode, that was silver can. I was running 21.5 with 17.5 guys for CC practice.
My Tekin is back in B4 so not really going to run it till Castle hill round.
