big mario Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Had some lite and motion from like 10 years ago, cost a fortune back in the day, went budget this time with 2 magicshine 1000 lumen, one for me cranium and one for the bars. Preliminary backyard tests are quite impressive. mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronG Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I'm using Magichsine also. Two 900 lumens, one bar mount, one helmet mount. My first Magichshine was recalled due to the battery shenanigans. I finally received the replacement battery 6 months after sending the original in. Out here the helmet mount is next to useless this time of year. The trails are way too dry and it is like driving with your high beams on in the fog. Too much dust unless you are leading! I also have a Niterider HID that never sees the night time rides anymore. For the size of the battery and the light output Magicshine blows the HID away.

The Thursday crew will be there with antelope for grillin'. No worries if you don't, I like to ride my back yard. :) very cool. meet you there as soon as the G can ride (he's just walking) Good place to work on your skills as well. The place is a blast. More about Valmont here www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXx6to3GEFs PC, get G a Strider type runbike now so that he can start working on the balance for riding. He won't need to go the idiot training wheel route and he will just ride away when he gets on a pedal bike. Ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny but, yeah, If he's walking get him out in the yard/neighborhood park and get him working on the basics. The only reason not to start on day 1 was that there wasn't any snow. :) Just like discipline... starts on day 1. Ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronG Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Ink, it is incredible to see how far KK has come. I like how he was doing some quick edge to edge turns. Looks like you already have him riding some forward angles too. He should be rippin it up by the end of the season on the hardboots. Can't wait for Christmas to get here, hope to ride with KK!
