1w light to my helmet. I can't believe I've never tried this before! I wasn't sure at first as it's quite blinding if you get it straight in the eyes, but the effect it had on the WVM, and the guy who was going to pull right out in front of me was nothing short of amazing!!

Bentmikey, I know how you feel about people attaching things to their hemlets, but seeing as I've never bumped my head, I thought I had better put the helmet to good use!!! :wink:

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Even if the voices aren't real, they have some very good ideas.

    LOLOL!!!

    EMD, My guess is that you probably get more safety benefit from having an extra light that points where you look than you lose from making the helmet risk worse. Better to avoid the accident in the first place innit.
