I’m afraid this is a bit cheeky.
I doing Relentless on 6th October as a solo and it’s only just occured to me that it will be dark for 50% of the race – worse I don’t have enough battery power to last 12 hours.
So, I was wondering if I could borrow batteries…. I’ll pay in beer, cash, favours. I’ll come get ’em on the 5th and drop them off (fully charged!) on the 8th (Monday). All damage etc. paid for if course! Lights are magicshine MJ 808 – aka. Deal extreme ones that lots of people have.
This would be a great help – I think I’ll need three – so it would meen shelling out £100 plus for one use.
On a related note, anyone use/d Hope Vision 1 lights? Seem to be on offer some places.
I have a set of hope vision 2s that you’re welcome to borrow. It will go either bar or helmet mount. It’s just the standard battery so they’ll do 2-3 hours on high, more if you switch to low on the climbs.
The vision 1 isn’t going to be enough for any kind of technical riding, you’d probably be better putting the money towards a set of the DX or similar imported lights.
Hi Robin,
I’m sure I have at least 3 batteries for the deal extreme jobbies so you’re welcome to borrow those. Give me a shout nearer the time,
Gav
