Commuting - Its getting darker earlier

But I am prepared :D

Lights are actually brighter than shown, but I had to underexpose or the lights themselves would just be big red blotches.


Lights pointed directly at the camera

anyway you can curve that bottom line for the 'happy face' look?

Holy crap! That's like those UFOs that pulled up behind Richard Dreyfus' truck in Close Encounters! Awesome! What lights do you have there?

Oh my goodness, that would be hilarious if you could do that, BAH. :D

haha I thought about that, but don't know if it's possible. Plus the above looks a little more like "leave me alone" :)


However, it might be fun to have a few different configurations, depending on my mood???:D

The lights are

2 serfas tl 1000 http://www.serfas.com/lights/TL-1000.shtml
1 down low glow. http://www.rockthebike.com/lights/downlowglow

If I did get the happy face going, I could set on of the lights on blink mode :D

It's like the garland of silk flowers I wrap around my handlebars, BAH. I am always amazed at how much positive feedback I get from motorists about it. :)

Careful, or someone might think your bike is a bomb.

Oh dang, that's hilarious. It would be cool to be able to change configurations at the push of a button.

Oh, that car just cut me off, push button and the mean face shows up.

I love commuting in the dark, with all my lights I actually feel safer commuting in the dark, so many dang lights you HAVE to see me!!! For me it is just more relaxing as well.

Awesome looking light setup!!!

The only problem now is the resurgence of the infamous bike ninjas. So far I have two new varieties this year, beatnik and hipster bike ninjas.

took it out last night for the first time like that. Had 2 different carloads of kids yell out the window
1. That is bad ass man!!
2. Sweet ride!!

Had a police cruiser pass me going the other way on a main road. Saw his brakelights, then he must have changed his mind, kept going, saw brakelights again then he just kept going haha :)
