Seeing as it will be my first ride since the QB weekend and I'm supposed to be impressing people with a 100k'er on Sunday. Might try & do an extra lap if I can finish work early enough if anyone's interested - say 6pm start at the tavern. If it takes longer than 1.5 hours I'll meet y'all on the way out...

Gary's picture

I am a maybe for this.
Blew the rear shock at ourimbah on the weekend so I have to rebuild the cannondale, if I can get it together in time I might pop along.

christine's picture

does that just leave you open for teasing for owning a crack and fail...

Gary's picture

Afraid not it was a stumpy that broke, the cannondale I have had for ten years without a problem. But dont tell anyone, I am trying to stay out of the specialized/cannondale debate.

GeordieAndy's picture

now but don't have any lights!

Can anybody recommend a reasonable to good set of lights for someone who will ride at night on occasion?

If poss. in low price, mid price and high price range.

Then I might even see you there! Smiling

Hi Andy

I can tell you what not to get and that's the cheap ones from Torpedo 7. I fell for the special deal and they are rubbish.
Basically everyone is going LED these days. You get what you pay for as with everything.

Check the Ay-ups, they are a good favourite (around $450 I think) - http://www.ayup.com.au/

If you are handy check up Robs really good article on this very site about making your own (little money) - http://nobmob.com/articles/robs_homemade_leds

Also the new Cree LED is out soon I think - http://nobmob.com/node/5223

Mick just got some Exposure lights from the US, but I think they are quite pricey although probably awesome (lots!) - http://www.use1.com/exposure/

It could be a good excuse to make some great lights if you can source some. That should cover your price points Try to go for bike mounted and helmet mounted.

.. out, we have one of our Girls in Hospital and it is a small chaos!!
next time!
