Hello All smile1.gif


You know how it goes, something will go wrong when you least expect, so laughcont.gif


Keep on of those small clip on torches under the seat and check on the battery from time to time.
In case you break down you might need some light to investigate. idea32.gif


Also buy of those blinking cyclist LED lights, in case you have an electric failure in a dark road and have to pull to the side. verysad.gif

You want to be seeing by other road users. grin.gif


Clip on your arm or your bike....


It might save your live.......... bowdown.gif

talking of under seat space...... had to go get a guy's service book out of his bike today, so i could stamp it...... he said "it's in my boot"....

when i got there i realised why..... it's bloody huge!!!!!

was a 400 scooter thing + the space under the seat was enormous!

quite funny really laughcont.gif

If I were to put anything under my seat it would just fall on the floor. :tounge:

I use those big reflective things that are always on sale at bike shows. I have an orange - ish one on the back of my lid that reflect red and is as bright as my tail light and a small white one on the front. Thats my paranoia - I want my head to be seen.

A swisser or similar is a good tool to have - one with screw drivers, and in the days of disappearing public phones, a mobile - plus puncture repair - I alway get a puncture on a new tyre. mad1.gif So now I'm carrying a rucksack on my back - may as well throw in a bottle of water, small camping stove, change of underwear, toothbrush... - oh and baby wipes - they are a must, excellent for cleaning greasy fingers.

Hi

Any bicycle shop should have it,,,,
but in case you far etc.

have a look.. on this site..


ww.wiggle.co.uk




You can get very small ones in case you are short of space under the seat...


I use reflective stickers also,,,, but in the dark, a blincking red light is much more visible...
