With all these powerfull lights we might be visible from space.

With all these powerfull lights we might be visible from space.

I'd be happy enough to be visible from behind the windscreens of the motorised vehicles we encounter.

 

[Aperitif]

...and my mate ChrisKH is wondering why I wear sunglasses at night...I think I have found a reason!

 

[Sittingduck]

Still undecided what to do about the light situation. Possibly swinging towards Redjedi's torch mount and a 200 lumens mini torch....

Yes - have my place Clive - I have been 'removed' ...

I'd never remove you, you cuddly old whatnot.....just so long as you don't do whatever it is you do before you wake up in a strange (and compromising) place...

 

[Aperitif]

Ta. I'll get back to 'Friday night is disco night' then...

Ditto. Sunday afternoon, I'm riding along Southsea seafront when some pillock comes up from behind me and tries to park in a space right in front. Must have seen me....Or are people on two wheels invisible, it's amazing how these drivers seem to ignore us. Anyway, I end up leaning on the car in my effort to stop, as I was clipped in, and the prat tried to pull away when I was still resting on it and trying to get my feet out, I had to shout stop.
I can only hope that between the megawattage of lights (no sign of my Hope yet, grrr...), some very loud/hi-vis/both jerseys, NSTN's spangly socks if she's got them on, that all the four-wheeled numpties somehow manage to overcome their selective blindness.

Had the good fortune to happen upon our own Mr Legg yesterday, shame you had to go

he's seen you ride, knew he couldn't keep up, would have to resort to blaming the 'bandage'.

with a dozen or so enquiries on the go....

 

[dellzeqq]

Awesome, 60 odd names there....

69. Of coures, the weather may have a big effect, but we're making halfway stop preparations for 90....

 

[Aperitif]

I think the BBC and The Guardian (and Boris BTW - it's about time he turned out at Hyde Park Corner ) should be alerted to Tony's Tucker Challenge and make a report. "Today Crawley, tomorrow Masterchef!"

 

[Will1985]

Space for more? I should know by tomorrow.
