Off the trail

PyZahl went out for a fun Wednesday night ride at CP. 5 riders showed up...
He tried out his new Stonebite Triplefire with helmet mount and Camelback monted light control the first time under real riding conditions at the tight and winding trail in the woods of CP. It was a 100% success. The trail riding was almost as good as at day time, using a dual TF setup, one on the handlebar with narrow beam (12-12-35 degree beam) and a wider beam on the helmet for perfect near vision (12-35-35) and the ride turned into a night flight . The little extra weight on top of the helmet from the stripped down TF with external control was to PyZahl's surprise no issue at all, he did not even felt it at any time. He used a buff under the helmet, because it was cold, this also helped to hold the helmet in place and worked out perfect. Could not have been better.

And as usual, PyZahl is taking the picture and hides himself -- only the bike mounted TF showes it's light beam at the far left , a little outwards.

So we all were flying along the trail, got separated at times, some fun... and managed in a way to go wrong way and a little off the main loop and did some extra riding. Hell of fun.
