I disagree. The light of the headlights is enough for me (but then, I have uprated bulbs as well).

Nothing like the early hours of the morning screaming around Anglesey. Some of the roads have pretty severe bends (90degress on a fair few, and they come out of no-where). Add to that suicidal rabbits that like to jump out at the last second.

I find since I'm so focussed on the ride, I don't care about lifes problems, so it allows me some sort of escape & time to back off.

i think i'll be out again tonight.

Love night riding, but not on lonely dark country roads, scares the hell out of me

yes. I put on my one piece and wet for a blast, then crashed into a hedge. Ooops, moral of the story being if you are tired and bored watch a DVD or go to the pub, don't go for a blast on your bike. Having said that I quite enjoy riding through town at night when no one is about. it just feels really cool to ride through London or something and only see the odd taxi or Police car.

I wish I could do this, although after my ultra poo day yesterday I started drinking at 6pm and been up all night, infact going to bed now he he he. I have a bad head !! Have made some stupid decisions about my life whilst drunk but they seem a good idea so will give them a go lol...... one is a new job :s

five times a week from newport to bristol at 1 in the morning. i live right next to the m4 but i only use it to go over the old severn bridge.

i take the A48 to langstone, thorugh a couple of nice big roundabouts then go through magor,rogiet and caldicot to get to chepstow. the bridge is awesome at that time of the morning, even better when the wind is blowing.

then a B road through eastercompton, again a few nice twisties. was a bit scary at first but i know the road now so corners are no problem. then fiddle my way into bristol to get to work

no cars, no people just quiet empty roads

its a KD playground the last time i enjoyed riding this much England was playing in the world cup and all the roads were empty then

Meeting the mrs at 10.30 tonight and guarentee i will enjoy the ride there on my own than the ride back. Headlights on mine are different to yours and are good but not that bright still but its ok if you know the road. I ride at a snails pace on roads i dont know.

coming home from work anywhere between 1 and 5 is awsome on the bike. night riding through the new forest is brilliant at late hours of the night. not brilliant for judging corner speed though!
