My back light failed last night so I ordered a replacement pair (back + front) which are due to arrive this afternoon***. That will leave me with a backup front light.

The new lights are the same type that I bought a month ago for my Devon bike. They are cheap, but are bright enough for the lit roads that I will use them on, and they look well made. TBH though, if they pack up after a couple of years use that would be okay, except for being more electrical waste to recycle.


*** They arrived on time!

I have a decent rear mudguard on my favourite ride:

The front however; is er…less effective 🙄

So; preparing for some late-year / Christmas Holiday rides 😁 - I have today purchased an SKS S-Board front. At just £12.95 + postage from Merlin Cycles.

Got one of these on my Gravel bike. And for the cost, adjustability, sturdiness / fit…….it’s very good for keeping the worst off 👌
 
Not bought today but coming today is a new Garmin Varia RTL516. My old one last a 3.5 hour ride with a couple of warnings of low battery but when it was new 8 or 9 years ago, it'd easily last a full day without warning. Decathlon have a Black Friday deal so I ordered another (just googled and sigma are doing a similar deal) which I'll use for any longer rides in the summer and keep the old one for grotty rides and commutes.
