Mounting a stop watch?

[Rykard]

Hi,
I want to somehow mount a stop watch on an old set of tri bars on my trainer,, Does anyone have any ideas/links on how i can do this?

It is so I can easily do intervals/tabata type stuff..

If it's a wrist type watch you can wrap some thick foam around the bars and mount the watch over that. I use a bit of water pipe insulating foam on my bikes. Works a treat.

it's not a wrist watch it's a 'handheld' watch

Zipties?
Might not be pretty but i am sure you make it solid enough.

Oh! No ideas then. Sorry

There used to be a device made especially for this purpose, I bought one from Fred Pratt (see below) a few years ago.It looks like Fred and his shop are gone but maybe his stock is lurking somewhere. Otherwise you could zip tie some pipe lagging to the 'bars and velcro you watch to that. You can buy packs of velcro designed for this kind of thing,

VDO puters have a "time trial" function now that gives you a countdown, I would imagine you could find something cheaper on the bay that does the same.
