Night riding simply rocks! Winter leads us in the snowbound interior to head
to the hills and ski at night as well. I can't even begin to express how great
bringing a quality night light (Cygolite Mighty Cross 400) into my life has
been. To offer another opinion you DON'T need a MINIMUM of 1000 lumens. While
1000 plus is ideal, and as always the more the merrier, 500 will get you going
and keep you moving. If only one light can be used, put it on your head. Silly
Americans heavy lights with batteries force you to cinch your helmet so tight
that it gives me, at least, a headache. Great review Pete, I'm looking forward
to upgrading to a brighter system (1500-2000L) in the near future and pushing
my night excursions further via moto. Happy trails…
