I recommend the lights, seem to be doing their job. <br />We've been getting out lately, but not on the bikes. Many of our shrubs and trees took a hit from the exceptionally cold winter, so we've been in the yard digging and yanking out dead plants. It is fitness nonetheless.

They're on my short list of mods when I get back in the game. I wondered if you were still doing Team Oregon. Cool! I'm still a big believer in the classes. May even have to take a refresher when I'm back to riding again. Best to you and Brandy!
