Magicshine lights are a great deal. Got mine form geomangear. The cost is in the batteries/

Been doing a lot of nighttime gravel road riding lately. Weather is perfect for it. Biggest danger is running into skunks - had a couple way too close encounters.

MJH2 - I used to get quite a bit of lower back pain on courses with short sharp hills and out of the saddle efforts, or hard ripply courses - Indian Lakes 2 years ago killed me for some odd reason. For the climbing it made a huge difference if I put my hands on the tops, near the stem, rather than on the hoods. Seems to work different lower back muscles. For the hard ripples - Tubulars are the bomb. I was messing around last year with some Tufo Flexus tires - absolutely no improvement over tubeless in terms of handling, but they were fantastic at soaking up those vibrations. Absolutely no back issues. I'll try some Grifos this year.

if you can dig up some tubular wheels you're more than welcome to the Tufos. Very easy to mount - for tubulars.
