My status on this guy is pretty much the same as Indy. Gonna have to wait until it gets a little closer to determine.

Also, finding someone who'd want to drive down there with me would help.

didn't have flashlights for the rally, that was before the crackdown and when we had to get creative to ride.

true true... you should take off your mirrors and mount lights like Kevin did... angle them up and out for corners

then you can get rid of the helmet lights

helmet lights are better because they go exactly where you look.

As long as you get 3 or 4 bikes running you can see just fine. Remove your mirrors and run your brights. We can run 90% of our daytime speed. Just have to know the road.
