2010-04-03 - Egg run to the sun - London to Brighton night ride

Mick - i'll be probably using this http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/NiteRider_MiNewt_Mini_USB_Front_Light/5360038148/ this is a great deal at wiggle by the way. Not sure i could sell you one at this price unless a few people want one

oh, hang on, you would want one with a bigger battery for your endurance shit, you would have to pay a bit more for that

I have that niterider lite you linked to.

It is great but only limiting factor that should be considered for a ride of this duration is that battery life is limited to 2.5 - 3 hours, and there is no means of extending that (unless you can charge while you ride somehow), i.e. no low power mode, no flashing mode, only a bright as fuck burn your eyeballs out mode.

If I am let off from sunday morning easter egg hunt activities with my kids to come on this ride, I would probably bring my cheapo cateye to use for the lit sections and the minewt on the scary dark bits...
