Re: New Map Time

PM me a location near you and I’ll make you a sample. I’m debating not putting all the ITT routes on as in some places they look really crap due to overlap. I may even leave them off altogether

Re: Which Exposure light?

Strada and joystick for me. Top combination. You can USB C charge (I think) using the Exposure USB cable and a USB down to C adapter. Not tried it though.

Thanks Dave. I always run it slightly nose down. One of Mike Hall vids explaining how he sets up and keeps nose down.
