I was not seeing the light on this ride. That headlight of mine drove me crazy this morning.

Last night, I had it plugged into the charger. The charge indicator on top of the light was on steady, not blinking; so I figured the light was finished charging up.

It wasn\’t. I was only a little more than a mile from home when the light went out; and I couldn\’t see where I was going. I was not seeing the light — literally.

I don\’t want to be one of those annoying people who ride in the dark without lights; so I stopped; got off; and started walking the bike. I tried switching the light on, and it did go on; but almost right away it went out again.

I had to walk back home; and it seemed to take forever. What with pushing the bicycle; darkness; and bike shoes, I couldn\’t walk at my normal pace.

I hope this doesn\’t mean the light is due for replacement. Or could the charger block be on its way out? Whatever it is, I do know that, when I go out for a ride, I want to be seeing the light.
