Fear my bastard-power bike light

[Tom]

Treated myself to a nice light today. Hope Vision LED.

Although I only have a cameraphone, you get roughly this quality of light, for a good 30 yards ahead of you:

Its sexy too:

Its so bright you can't look at it - you'll be blinded. People were stopping and commenting as I rode past. Dogs whimpered and hid in bushes. Moths made suicide runs at the lights.

And I rode through some dog shit, which was nice. Hiding under the leaves.

I went for a 15 mile ride, a mix of tight twisty forest track, disused railway line-cum nature trail, and disused canal. Fucking brilliant fun, although slightly creepy.

I can just imagine the last words of the people in the car driving towards you before they swerve off the road:

"FECK! THERES A TRAIN COMING TOWARDS US!"

Manchester Evening News - a photoset on Flickr

Theres no fucking way I'm telling them where it is though. Let them wonder about it's location, while I'm in there rifling through all the old newspapers and machinery, with permission, taking whatever I want.
