Woops no lights

[Viper5]

Been out on a few rides now..forgot to start the Garmin on 1st ride.

1. 13 miles omg hills
2. 13 miles will I make it back...water
3. 10 miles..Woops got dark pretty quick and rear light failed. Lucky made it home before too late.

So far not bad. Do feel like I'm not moving sometimes and the smallest hills are tough.

Let's see if I can upload a pic..

Well done. Might be better if you just link to your rides rather than the images, it's a bit more interactive. Keep it up

We have all been there !! Some days it feels like riding through treacle ...
Keep up the good work, great progress.

Ive forgotton to turn on the garmin before a ride as well. Also forgot to turn it off after an event only to have it beep at me from the boot five miles later.

Once when i was commuting, my old wired computer packed up, so didnt record. Fixed the problem and then rode the next commute with two wheel magnets to catch up! Sad aint I, but it was a good feeling travelling at 60mph!

I bought a couple of cheap battery lights that stay in my tool kit for this very reason

I have two lights when I ride in winter time in case the batteries fade on one during the ride or it falls off etc.

Summer I'm rarely out late enough to need lights though there is often one lurking in the bottom of my pannier. I admit there is usually a couple of times when I get caught out by bad weather in the Autumn before I get back into proper winter light mode.

You can just visit your activity on the web (rather than the Strava App), and copy the URL (like: https://www.strava.com/activities/lotsofnumbershere), then paste that into your post. When people click it, they'll go to the activity and can pan and zoom the map, or generally stalk you however they please (joking).
