I have the 250 version of this light. Rock solid and bright enough for up to around 16-18 mph. Bright enough to be visible in direct sunlight.The 350 version would be better as you're planning some off road riding.

Battery life is a bit of an issue though, I may need to invest in rechargeable batteries. I also hate having to take it on and off every time I stop and lock up my bike but there is no way I'm leaving 50 bucks sitting on my handle bars. I didn't care before, when it was just a cheap Cateye.
I use this one for a night time flasher .
