    I am curious as to why it was hilarious...

    Did a small squirrel dressed in a clown suit ride from behind a tree on a unicycle and start cracking 'Jimmy Carr-esque' one liners? :shock:

    Did you do it without lights? I imagine that could be quite hilarious.

  • I regularly go out early mornings (about 2-ish) with my MP3 and all the roads to myself. Enjoy it very much. Last time I went was for just under 3 hours on the road and saw four cars! :D

    I tend to go out in daylight and come home in the dark just now, I don;t do mornings :lol: I love the night riding though, it's a bit unnerving sometimes but I love the way it makes familiar trails seem different. Not to mention the night views and starry skys and sunsets making a ride much prettier.

  • I love night-riding, it's better with the snow because you don't need lights. But even needing lights it is awesome, it's a bit like having super focus because you don't have terribly good peripheral vision.
