I changed mine this year to GPS laptimer due to ease of setting up rather than blanking for other peoples beacons. Usefull for seeing if your pace is dropping off, but just found out if there are people close enough to you then I dont bother ever looking at it more interested in beating them than the clock.

Agree with Mark, when dicing with you and Miles never looked at the lap timer, too much going on for me to overload the brainbox with even more info.

when you get alone its worth having one, mine wasnt working (and I couldnt see it anyway) and would defo have helped me keep my pace even.

+1 deffo worth having one if there is no one in front of you. Helps you keep your pace and on test days they are invaluable.

I was convinced I needed one when I didn't have one, and after spending £200 on a GPS one, I discovered that I am usually too busy to look at it till I have got off my bike after the session.

Just my opinion.

+1 Mine is in my tool box,, can't be bothered to fit it.

I ran with a lap timer for the first time last weekend. I found it great for the test day but not so useful in the races (too busy with other stuff!)
