I saw one on a dealer site but it has gone now.... I know who to, it is coming to the UK, not me though :-(

Hi Ajmac, wow your other half sounds great! very supportive- think we're all in similar boats/ UC's there
I agree with other folks here that there's huge expense singly but maybe as a group.... similar vein discussion over on the thread regarding wheels

The idea of new track sounds great- even allowing for the heavy toll of road/ hard surface wear, if we all mostly do low mileage per year, won't a new set still last MANY years just as our current ones have?? even having a source of new track link SETS maybe might reduce the cost a little- what do you guys think?? If most of the cost is the inital mold setting up, then if we pool our resources....???
thanks again for y'all taking part in such an EXCELLENT forum!
