There's a funny Rob Crowe article somewhere on the net about all the different Freds that do the Beach Rd group rides, but I can't find it. Among heaps of other stuff, he talks about
"mirror mountain" in Brighton, which is just a slight rise next to a building with reflective window, where everybody checks themselves out......anyway, you had the be there
hehehe I know where that is... you have to be real careful not to get cleaned up by dudes moving off their line while they gaze at their OCP form.
Lights these days are pretty good sizewise. And they look better than a smashed bike coz a motorist didn't see you. besides, most of them are pretty easily removed for daytime riding, and just whack em on when you know you'll need them - Which could be mid-afternoon today, considering how friggin smoky it is outside
