I saw the revolights on a bike coming out of Riverside Park at 97th St one evening. Might that have been you? I was going into the park at the time.

Where does the light emanate from? The hub or the rim?

Ha highly likely it was me. I go through that path at night all the time since I live on 97th and CPW. Batteries mount to hubs, light ring attaches to spokes near tire.

OK, let's watch for each other or maybe even meet up some time. I'm the guy with the ridiculous mustache, of course.

About 2 years ago, on either a Christmas or New Year's or Thanksgiving Day evening, I saw a lone cyclist on a bike with revolight on the the Westside Hudson Greenway around 69th street going north. Maybe that's you, too? There was hardly anyone else because it's a major holiday. That's the only time I saw such light. Very nice.

Ah, this one was likely not me. I purchased the revolights just this past year :). Good to know there *are* others out there in NYC though!

As i now have a new (to me) wear item of brakes, i'm going to lean towards reflectors & non-power type stuff. I do have a battery charger & batteries to go with it, but i'm honestly over the constant checking & charging.
