Why Bicycle Night Riding IS So Attractive?

One of the most exiting experiences you can have while riding your mountain bike is taking part in bicycle night riding on one of your favorite single tracks.

Until recently, night cycling was the hobby of just a few. Lately, though, more and more bicycle riders are exploring the charm of night riding.

The reason for the growing popularity of the bicycle night riding phenomenon is the new bicycle lighting technology: They can supply much more light while consuming less battery power. They will perfectly illuminate your trail.

In my opinion, the real answer to this question lays deep in our nature as human being. We were hunters, and still we are. The feeling of riding in the middle of the night while our track is lighted by a shaking small battery plash light that creates a "light tunnel", and trying to guess what & who will come into our light beam - and this is why bicycle night riding is so exiting.When darkness arrives, the light spot combines the rider, his bikes and 30 feet of lighted trail to one - nothing exists beyond that (at least until the battery power will end).

For me, the best bicycle lights make bicycle night riding more interesting. What’s more, they make my riding tour safer.

How to select the Right Lighting System?

Currently most bicycle lighting systems that are capable to give you the minimum required lighting power. If you want to know more about light buying guide, please read:

Most of the bicycle lighting systems are quite expensive. So you may want to choose the lighting system that will fit your budget. If you are a beginner / one time night biker, you can plan on buying a $60-100 lighting system. If you are a more experienced cyclist you might better look for lighting systems in the range of $300 and above.For more information about different types of lighting systems for bicycles you are invited to visit the Xeccon about bicycle lights.
