A fine evening with dry weather inviting for a longer ride. So I rode out for a ride along the backroads, concentrating on incorporating a couple of longer climbs. The roads were 95% dry which made for a great ride. My Lumicycle was working fine and the only worries I had was my taillight which is in dire need of new batteries. I wasn't very comfortable when I was riding on the bigger roads but I guess I still have enough reflective patches on my clothing to draw attention. I was wondering when I was climbing a pitch black road in Bossut if it wouldn't be a good idea to have a backup system. Perhaps I need to take the Lupine Tesla system with me . It doesn't weight much more than a GSM and the LED lighthead fits nicely on my helmet. After all, it's the sixth winter for my trusty Lumicycle HID and I wouldn't be surprised if it reached its End Of Life one of these nights. Oh, I just discovered this nice website by Jeff Kerkove, Endurance Mountain Bike Athlete, whilst looking for pics of the 2009 Magura Durin SL fork I plan to put on my Moots. This would yield me a 300g weight loss at the front end. The Moots' Fox RLT80 will be transferred to my Litespeed whose 2001 SID SL fork has reached its EOL.
