Freelap Timing getting some use in Rotorua
With the part sponsorship of NZRide, importersand web-retailers of Freelap timing systems Southstar Shuttles Rotorua have installed permanent transmitters at the start of the National Downhill/Huckleberry Hound near the shuttle drop off and at the finish of the Downhill and Little Red Riding Huck. This means riders using a freelap watch can get automatically timed runs on these tracks, with times showing up on their watch - pretty damn cool!
