Break out your flashiest gear for our annual light up! Bring your lights (big and small), your reflective clothing and any other nighttime must-haves. We’ll put it all to the test under cloak of darkness in Magnuson Park.

Find out what your reflective jacket actually looks like to drivers:

Alien?

Fashion statement?

Black hole?

We provide the high and low beams of a car. You bring your standard gear, lights, reflective bands, blinkies etc and we’ll put it on and ride your bike into the dark, dark night. You can sit in the drivers seat and see exactly how you appear — or disappear — into the void.  Or, watch as others ride out — see the gear that actually shows up.  It’s a great place to get ideas of which elements make up effective lighting for your ride.

Multi-level white front light? Check.	Red rear light? Check.

Light or reflection in motion?  Check.	Signal arm and hand lit up?  Check.

Sidelight? Check.

Good to go!

Meet up at the Cascade office at 7400 Sandpoint Way NE on Thursday, Dec. 1 between 6:00 and 6:30. We’ll have a brief discussion, then ride out to the dark shadows zone together at 6:45. Dress for the weather as rain only makes it more fun!  We’ll have hot cider and prizes donated by our local bike shops.
