Canaris Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 obviously not sunday night. In the planning for organising of night rides it would be interesting which night you all like doing the dark and dirty thing. I know that the HHH often aim for fullmoons.
AndreZA Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 Where? Here on the west we have Tuesday night crits at the Dome and Wednesday nights Delta park. .
Spinnekop Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 So.......you can't find your way in bright sun light........ aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnd..... you want to organise a night ride........? Interesting concept...... Adventure racing?
Super_mil Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 I would say, aim for new moons. Put your light(s) to the test.

Canaris Posted April 2, 2009 Author Posted April 2, 2009 Why are there no night races on friday nights? why must everything be a race?
Dirty Twin Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 any night is good for me cause I have one of these: Don't ever have to wait for the full moon.

I must admit though that it was great fun and well worth the effort. Go and give it a try. You won't regret it.

However, the post 12pm return home left me wasted in the office the next day. (That and the wednesday post 12pm after chess club)
cat-i Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 hehehe kona, some of the rides nowadays DOES arrive earlier than 12, we have been catching the spur or doppio zero open for hot chocolate and food after the rides beeg nites out, where a return of after 12 is highly likely, only happens before public holidays - like next week's 80.
chuck Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 I really want to do some night rides but I'm curious. Are there no concerns regarding safety on night rides on 'open' roads? I mean riding in the dark through veld seems a bit dodgy to me.
Santa C Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Why are there no night races on friday nights? why must everything be a race? I wish I could ride at night on my own...but will last 5 minutes before my bike gets hijacked So only chance of riding at night is by doing a race!!
