johnridleyMy Cateye taillight was gone from my bike when I got ready to leave this morning. It was on an L bracket on the rear rack. It looks like the L bracket fractured from the rough road I'm on frequently. I still had the primary blinker, which is a Planet Bike SuperFlash. I like to have a steady light as well, and I don't even like riding with just one light; it's always possible that one will fail and though I do have a truck reflector back there, I don't like the possibility that I might find myself with no active lighting at some point.
I need to decide what I'm going to do back there. I've been thinking about building a dual mount so I can put two SuperFlashs back there, but I've also been thinking about mounting a new xenon strobe; it's nice to have one of those in fog.
I'll keep my eyes on the side of the road on the way home tonight. The Cateye was a tank, it would have survived the fall but not getting run over, and someone may have picked it up.
