    I’m new to Road.cc and one of the first articles I read was the news piece in the link below.

    we’ve got their rucksack with EL strips in for review at the mo. As with most EL gear it needs to be quite dark before it really gets visible but it’d be great for winter. It remains to be seen how well the electrics stand up to the elements, but i’m sure shaun will put it through its paces đŸ™‚
