X-post: DIY Trail/Lap counter

I have posted this in the trail building section but it is a little quiet in there and thought it might find a few more interested club affiliated riders in this forum as well.

I have wired up a DIY trail counter for HMBA to get some usage statistics for our trail at Awaba. After 3 weeks of running so far, all seems to be working quite well (even after all the rain we have had) so I expect it will only ever need some TLC after a bush fire.

Hopefully this sort of data will be able to give us some hard data to fall back on for things like grant applications.

Info on how to build it is here:

Cheers Stevo! :)

The only issue I can see is if the car battery developed a fault & started a bushfire... :eek:
