[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 15780, member: 21"] One of these days I'll be joining you guys. Just had too much to do. I did manage to get a ride in over Frazier. My ride spanned Saturday and Sunday. Started just before sunset and ended just after midnight. No photos though. It's hard to get anything more than black. That makes it hard to have much of a ride report. One thing is for sure. There is no worrying about on coming riders at night. For some reason we didn't see anyone on the trails. Wait that is not quite true. There were two guys on top of the mountain who were doing amateur radio. What they call a "field day." It's sort of a contest of who can talk to the most others and the top of that mountain is a good place for them. There was a lot of wildlife. I always see more at night. A bunch of big jackrabbits. They like running down the trail. I saw two foxes in the trail as well. I had several lighting issues. I ended up taping a LED flashlight to my helmet in cast the lights went out (again). That worked as prevention and I didn't have any cases of unscheduled darkness. [/QUOTE]
