FULL MOON NIGHT RIDE

The Route: Terrey Hills, Perimeter + Long Trail(18.5km round trip)

This social ride starts at 7:00pm at the Japanese School Roundabout (end of Echunga road), to avoid the muddy bits. This will also give enough time to get back and share some 'tales and ales' and schnitzels at the Tavern.

Social Pace - newbies welcome too - the more the merrier.

However - beware of surprises ...pedal faster when you hear the ♫♫ duelling banjos ♫♫ ...in the dark woods out there ....

Do you need the full on - "lights a blazing" for this ride? What do you recommend as a minimum?

hawkeye's picture

Ayups or 900-lumen MagicShine lights would be a minimum. Helmet + bars with separate power packs is preferred. Suddenly losing your only light to a component failure is unlikely to end well Evil

The bottom line is you need lights you can see by without outrunning at pace, without the aid of street lights. AA battery powered "look at me" commuting lights are nowhere near enough. Where we're going there ain't no auxilliary light sources.

Post up what you've currently got or are thinking of getting, and we'll advise our views if that helps. Smiling

Thinking about joining you guys but I have never ridden at night although have just bought some lights. I have lupine wilma 6 1500 for bars and ferei b5 680 for helmet, would this be sufficient?

They'll be fine. Smiling

I'm blaming the hardtail - it just makes you want to attack ... and not thinking. Apologies to whoever it was that I frightened off at the back and went home. It wasn't very "social" of me Sad

The rib's OK. Got a nice circular white imprint of the ODI bar plug but a bit of icing and I'll be good to ride to work in the morning. Hope you made it in time for schnitzels!

It was an enjoyable ride - thanks Hans and everyone else for a good time.

Hawkeye, hope that you get sponsorship money out of ODI for the free promotion.
