Well... This was quite interesting to re-read all the new posts since my last logon. A LOT has happened in the past several... months to years, I forget when this was posted
I haven't ridden for quite some time- as I have had a lot of other things going on, and finally am back to getting my life straightened out. It's amazing how fast this thing can get thrown out of whack- just about as fast as this post did.. hah. Anyways, I'm moved back home to West LA and have finally started riding again, back to the original reason for weightloss and after a week to two of on and off riding starting with some 10 mile distances and what not, I've pretty much finally readjusted to my seat- curse those saddles, and am starting to do 20-26 milers.
As to the light topic, yes, I fell into like, a spare 30 dollars and realized after a few night rides with borrowed lights that I don't need a massive billion cp light.. and got a 30 dollar cateye that's mounted. Most of the places I ride have more than adequate lighting anyway, but I now have to research these other lights for other personal areas of my life (I do plumbing and electric and random repair jobs in apartments where attic and underhouse crawling are done a lot... so I like bright long lasting lights, hah).. curses. More lights... gahhhH!!!!!
