Light up my life...
Hey! Thanks for putting up with my political straying this week. Obviously I'm excited at the result. I will be wandering out of town for the next 4 days - yes again. Once I return, hopefully I can get into a routine of riding in the dark, continuing with the gym and getting some longer rides in on the weekends. Speaking of riding in the dark, I have a light - it's a Nite-rider Trail Rat. I'd really like a 2nd light to brighten things up and a bit and could use some recommendations. I've heard that HID lights are the way to go, but at $300 to start and $75 for replacement bulbs, I'm not quite sure I want to go there. So readers, help me out here. What do you have, what do you use, etc etc. Help!

I went for LED lights as the cost of replacement bulbs for HID's put me off. I have USE exposure lights from two years ago, the current ones are loads better!
I hope we all get behind our new president and that he is able to unite us as one country. It's been far too long since we've been united and working together as one.
Peace,
Brian

Jen I've got way too much experience w/lights. Tell me about how much you are looking to spend and what you are looking to get out of it in a bit more detail and i can give you some good models.
PEACE,

ok, metro- how long as my signature been yours?
how ironic would it be if we fought angrily over who the "peace" signature belonged to? :-)
I hope you have a great trip! Take lots of pictures.
Jen to spend under $200 and get a solid light can be tricky. Which NiteRider are you using right now? My best recommendation for that budget would be the really awesome Light & Motion Stella 200L. It puts out 200 lumens of brightness for 5 hrs on high power and 10 hours on med. I almost always run mine as a handlebar light with a super bright HID on my helmet. The other plus is that this little light is bomb proof.

Oh and Brian I’m just raggin’ on you for fun dude. The more peace that flows around the better. It worked in the 60s-70s till that war rolled around.

I was very excited about your election result, too.
