Think it depends where abouts you live and what the roads are like in your area Longers.I'd feel pretty safe up here in rural northumberland as there's plenty of quiet,local roads to ride around,I could avoid any major towns when the pubs are kicking out,and there's very little traffic on the roads at night.As long as I had good lights and reflective gear on I wouldn't be worried.Unfortunatly not everyone has this on there doorstep. Dual carriage ways,busy roads with large fast lorries and idiot car drivers are becoming the norm.longers said:I've been enjoying moonlit rides recently.
They've made me think about an overnight ride. I've heard about the mass participation overnight rides but is it sensible to attempt one on my own?
Moonlight rides are very nice, but starlight rides with no lights are pushing it a bitlongers said:I've been enjoying moonlit rides recently.

for the majority of the climb up to Holme Moss. It was beautiful. I put the lights on for the ride back down (34mph has never felt so fast!).yenrod said:I personally turn my lights off, in the countryfied lanes round here, unless a car comes along..
I'd call it a bit on the late side already.longers said:It's probably better done sooner rather than later though eh?
I think you're right and will be doing it next year.andrew_s said:I'd call it a bit on the late side already.
