    Bewdley Bridge

    Guys, download an app on your mobile called " WAZE " bang up to date, and will tell you the best route/s to your destination. Road closures, diversions, speed traps, average speed cams, police sitting off, etc, etc. Even potholes, 👍

    Hi Brian, i too have been a long time user of Sensor, never had a problem with the spools in the past. When the "NEW " Hyper Sensor came out, i switched to that, and again, never had a problem with the spools. Maybe, the original Sensor you've been buying is very very old stock, and that's why...
