    WooHoo! I'm Glowing!

    Finally! Got my down low glow installed after the bike shop uncrossed my shifter cables for me. It's beautiful- can't wait for dark tonight to try it out!

    Thank you commuter forum for the idea, and thanks to all who answered my post in maintenance and gave me info so I could actually make this work!

    Here are pictures from side, back, and looking down.

    Wow!!! That's really neat. Looks like its visible from all sides. and it doesn't look like it would create glares for you.

    Where did ou get it? not that I would be riding in the dark/dusk.

    Thank you for the photos.

    When I read your post, I thought you had been nuked, LOL!

    That is REALLY cool in a Pimp My Ride kind of way. I'll bet you can really see with those lights.

    Aw, shucks. Here I thought that maybe I wasn't the only pregnant one around here.

    It IS super cool, though!

    Thanks - I really like it! I went for my first glowing ride last evening. I was really impressed by how bright it seemed before it got dark -- at least from my vantage point. My shoes and the road had a lovely "orange-y" glow! I really want to take a ride with someone observing from a distance to tell me just how visible the light is. Well, actually, I want to be the person observing! Maybe I will temporarily attach it to hubby's bike and send him out...just afraid I might have to fight to get it back
