Deffo - what we doing? - riding up there I take it? cheeky stop off at the Horns or the Spoons on the way back to errr recharge the batteries?
What time we meeting? anyone else going apart from us? Marquis drive? Does my bum look big in these lights?

Marquis drive? Does my bum look big in these lights? I hadn't thought about it till you said but battery life.... I'm guessing about 2 hours for our lights? If we meet at Marquis at 6.30pm I thought a steady pace to Riff-Raff cafe, do the track there then perhaps across the top of the valley to From Top To Bottom and then start heading back. Not the most adventurous run but, it'll be dark! Not sure if I'm going to ride up though... Don't fancy the few mile along the canal with lights rapidly running out of juice lol As far as I know, there will be me, you, Eurobob, Will and possibly Burton. |

Yeah that's what I was thinking - drive up then and as you say the Chinese lights do vary in quality. My lid set seem to last forever but the bars one I have to 'manage' ie only have it on full power when in the darkest sections - half power is still pretty bright.
That sounds a fine run to me - don't get too adventurous first time out! I know I've said it before but under the lights, even a well known trail becomes a whole new beastie.
We should be ok for 2 hours minimum of light use anyway - I'll have a couple of spare 'normal' lights in me camelbak anyway as emergency back up.
Can't wait for this now.

"As far as I know, there will be me, you, Eurobob, Will and possibly Burton." You've been reading ghost stories again haven't you? you know there is no such thing as Eurobobs.  |

Can't wait for this now. Yeah, I remember you saying that.. I really want to do Spooky Woods at night but that's probably best left till my second night ride lol.. A lot of this route is fairly open but the run by the cafe and the ride back up after the run is all in dense forest.. Gotta say, I'm looking forward to it too.. |

Really pissed off with my self had to drop off the night ride due to fitness legs were cramping like I have never been on a bike before I have gone so far back awards it's untrue.
