Default Makeshift lights


Snow last night - first decent amount for a couple of years and I had to
get out while it was still going.

I didn't have time to dig out proper lights - instead I quickly strapped
on an LED Maglight to the frame and stuck to the streetlit road and
pavement.

Have you seen these really really cheap HID lights, they look like your
sort of thing and I seem to remember you've already got a 13.2v battery
setup?

Thanks for the links Joe,

I came back from the pub with my credit card inhibitions at rather a low
level and ordered one.

They may be a bit narrow beam for unicycling but what the hell, it make
a bloody good road bike light.
