    Another great video, fantastic work !!
    One question though, do you have any idea why are all your strava activities flagged ??? Someone feeling jealousy ?

    Most of us would've got the train via Carnforth and Leeds, and saved 30 mins, but it makes a nice story 🤣

      I had the same one on my bike, and had the same problem Chris did - the damn thing keeps tilting downward, so I'm guessing that made for crap visibility! Went to a little Bontrager model with a fixed angle and strobe-like flash. Hopefully keeping me a bit safer!
