Doing my first night ride tonight. Only done my road commute at night before. Hitting the woodland singletrack with a local group tonight. Checked the bike over and charged up my lights etc last night so all ready to go.

...any tips?

dont point your light at the ground in front of you, point it down the trail

Cheers Jedi, I was wondering about that.

Wrap up warm! I was out last night on the Quantocks and it was bitter! Take a change of cloths/socks/towel and a hot drink for when you get back to the car (assuming you're driving to the start).

Enjoy the stars - it should be another clear night...

I'll be riding to the start, but a flask of hot drink is a great idea.
