Yup. When I commute around this time, I bust out the HID light and do some serious damage.

How about a mini-magnesium spotlight. As you ride at night, it unreels and gets lighter. You need to light it with a flare though.

not looking to be a member of any club, but I just finished modding my bmx lid with 'heads-up' LED's...very bright, figured these would be more attention fetching than just my single bar mounted bike planet blinky (too many close calls going home from work after dark)

No club officers.
Anyone can be kicked out for any reason.
Now that Savas has been refused membership, he is free to join.
Whats the next club rule?
Minimum lighting power for membership? Including tailights?
No run time limitations?
What about Hazing ? One must ride the "gauntlet" in the dark!
