Zaskar09 Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 What lights would you recommend overall, I would love to start doing night rides but I'm kinda clueless when it comes to lights.
david16v Posted September 29, 2010 Author Posted September 29, 2010 What lights would you recommend overall, I would love to start doing night rides but I'm kinda clueless when it comes to lights. Magic light. But be careful there are cheap imitations out there!The single beam is very good. http://www.magiclight.co.za/bike-lights/mj808-bike-light If you would like more light then choose the one with 3 beams!http://www.magiclight.co.za/bike-lights/mj816 I got Blackburn SLX8 but they are discontinued unfortunately!My next upgrade will definitely be the MJ816!!
david16v Posted September 29, 2010 Author Posted September 29, 2010 Hey there MR 16 V The ladies are trying to do their own night riding on thursday evenings from 6:30pm till late, Nice of you guys to include the ladies but, last time I checked I notice there were only guys riding on thursday nights:) You guys will be to fast for the ladies anyways, we are lucky though as Bridge is supplying us with lights which is awesome. And the whole point is getting us to purchase the one we liked the most:) What lights would you recommend for the ladies?? How about we all get together next week Thursday @ 18:30?? Wont be fast, we can all take it slow!
splat Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 How about we all get together next week Thursday @ 18:30?? Wont be fast, we can all take it slow! Don't assume that any ladies are slow...

Thanks, had a look at the website but I don't see any prices?
splat Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 There is a link: Magiclight Retailers Otherwise contact Brad directly. Hard to beat for good service.
gongmech Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 ah may join you now that i have a light!! Ok i wont join you now that i broke my collarbone and some ribs the first day i used my light. Maybe when i'm back on the bike in a few months..such an inconvinience
gongmech Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Thanks for posting that. It's good to know I've never been apart of a group that has broken those rules. Why can't you ride on Monday or Friday? Plus there isn't a register there after 5pm to sign anyway. I don't see anything about not riding up to the mast, so whoever mentioned that was talking out of their ass! Have u looked in the wooden box at the gate??? It's in there.
mikkelz Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Have u looked in the wooden box at the gate??? It's in there. There could be snakes or spiders in that box at night. I'd rather not risk putting my hand in there.
R3SL Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 There is always a bunch of us that leave at 7 ish on a Thursday night. Mainly trail riding with as little jeep track as possible.Park at the shopping mall, Steenberg next to the prison so your car doesnt lose any windows.You forgot to mention the BEERS at Jakes afterwards, looks like you are one of Antons mates.
R3SL Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Have u looked in the wooden box at the gate??? It's in there.Yip , you right its in the wooden ****, its NB at night if there are large groups as we normally are on Thurs.Leave from Pick n Pay by Reddam @ 7:15pm. Ver social bunch of guys , normally ride for about 2 hrs.

Ver social bunch of guys , normally ride for about 2 hrs. We normally park @ the Total garage near Spar as the lighting is perfect and they are open 24hrs.The only problem with parking @ Pick n Pay is the ride from there down to the circle by spar, dodgy road with no lights. Several people have been knocked down on this road!
david16v Posted October 5, 2010 Author Posted October 5, 2010 Hey Guys, We all gonna be riding together on Thursday night @ 18:30.There is a ladies group (which consists of 3-4 ladies and one guy!) Weird I know! They are gonna be joining us. The ladies can set the pace! (Including the one guy!) So hopefully we can get about 10+ on Thursday night, lets hope the weather holds out!
david16v Posted October 5, 2010 Author Posted October 5, 2010 One of the ladies are gonna ride naked on Thursday night, hope this ain`t gonna break any rules!!!!
rock Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 haven't been for night ride in ages, must try get out there again........one day......
fastbike Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 Magic light. But be careful there are cheap imitations out there! They are all the same, remember the magiclight are already a imitation on its owm from another light.
