With the exception of a few rides on the park trail, I did my first night time ride this weekend. I used one of the blocks with Velcro and my PD32UE. I had a great time! I was always comfortable running at night, but not so much with cycling. With this, the red blinker on back and a reflective jacket, I felt safe.
Even though the tint on the PD32UE is neutral, it's surprising how cool it looked compared to the cars coming and going. It really made the ride much more pleasurable than a cool white. Just another reminder to me that aesthetics play a big role, at least for me. I've had my PD32UE's for about a year but never used them much. I'm planning on setting up the second PD32UE on the handlebars for some extra light on darker roads. The beam is also perfect - a nice big spot with flood but focused enough as to not blind drivers.
Just in time for the daylight saving time switch!
