I got up nice and early today ,headed to Inverkeithing to buy new lights for my bike.Came out the shop £130 poorer,but had a cracking set of vistalight's.Came home ,put the battery on charge all day and when it had been on charge for eight hours,i thought lets go for a few miles off road.Great, pissing with rain ,slippery as f**k,pitch black ,great fun.Until headind down,what i can only describe as a vertical drop down hill through thick forrest,my new lights went out..........:eek::eek::blackeye:.Oh bugger was the cry as i headed upside down into the first tree......:disapprove:Managed to limp home ,fling the bike in the shed ,storm into the house and get the box,where in clearly stated in big letters.................2 BATTERIES REQUIRED:dead:

You would have thought so,but it's one either side as they strap to the frame ,so i thought 2 batteries would just last ever longer...<not really required,>
Never mind ,bruises heal,chicks dig scars and glory lasts for evever:p
