    Well I dunno I got home 2200hrs after riding with peeps from 1800 and it was pitch black, rain and couldn't see anything with a £50 cycle light.

    So what light do you recommend?

    nah just kidding

    But are the prices cheaper now and peeps are getting ready for winter already.

    Dark in the woods at 9.00 now. Need lights. Ergo people will ask about them.

    Awwww, relax, can't beat a good midsummer's night ride out in them hills!

    Last year we were deliberately setting off to Cwmcarn at 9pm to get a few dry and fresh night laps in!

    There seems to be some notion by the OP that night riding is something done out of necessity, not choice 🙂

    "Enjoy the now"? Is this some foreign language?
