I was at the drug store earlier today. I had just locked up my bike and hadn't turned off my Planet Bike Superflash(http://ecom1.planetbike.com/3034.html). I had changed the batteries yesterday. So it was super bright.:thumb:

Another cyclist came up to me and told me that, since he did a lot of night riding, he wondered how he could get one.:eek:(surprise, not dismay)

I hope he remembers the website.:) Because, He sounded like he wanted to be properly lit at night.:) No 'ninja' riding was in his future from the sounds of it.:)

I've had some comments about my Cygolite Hotshot, and surprisingly cheap for the light. These days its getting easier and easier (read: cheaper) to be seen from behind. I don't think this trend is going to put more lit riders on the roads though; its mostly among riders that already have some kind of rear light that care about upgrading, not the ones that ride straight at me the wrong way without lights.

I have that same rear light, it's disgustingly bright. I love it.
