took my 6 yr old out a couple of weeks ago using a tag-a-long, she had her own helmet light,loved it. Hearing the Owls seeing foxes etc, was really proud of her. However she stated getting really cold towards the end and its put her off a bit. So make sure she is wrapped up well (footwear, gloves, etc)

she loved it. the light is mental, the low setting was used mostly. the highest setting is like having the sun on my handlebars 🙂

Jedi - You don't want to go hitting a stag on the quantocks - that usually pisses them off 😉

BTW, the predictive text on my phone turned jedi into Jesus - that would explain a lot!

Nice one, that's a pretty cool thing to do at 15. Who makes the dominator?
