Wow, that's a lot of positive reviews. I guess it wouldn't hurt if I got one for cheap. Count me in if you can get a few more guys to round out the five. Only rear lights I have right now are the bar end inserts. I live near Prospect Park so I can pick them up from there...

BTW, I have a bunch of them from when I went to Canada. They're worth it just for that extra bright flash in the middle of the blink pattern.

Count me IN, it's such a great rear tail light! Crazy bright and I haven't changed the original batteries in the one I got over a year ago.

You do know that there's a white version, right? https://www.amazon.com/Planet-Bike-30..._bxgy_sg_img_a
Anyway, I'll contact the seller. Thanks!

I met up with the seller and picked up my PB Superflash. He's a nice guy. He was shocked I was riding my bike with heels and "nice clothes", lol.

Heh, he was doing good business on that corner. I think I met up with him first, then someone else came by. By the time we both left he was waiting for a few other folks.

Oh nice, I wish I knew he was available sooner. I would have been dressed in nice slacks and shirt and shoes too instead of roadie gear. One day we should hold a "formal wear" bike ride where everyone has to dress nicely with monocles and top hat shaped helmets.

I'm just the idea-man, you can do all the organizing. 
But seriously, once the weather gets super hot and humid it'll be a pit-stained, swamp-butted disaster. We need to either get it together early May (bike month!) or put it off until Autumn. The ride can be nice, easy, and short, ending at a bar to drink old-timey cocktails.
