The Art and Science of Night Riding With Tom Place

Today, I'm joined by Tom Place from Outbound Lighting to chat all things night riding. Hear what attracted Tom to night riding and what he feels the benefits are. Tom shares some insight into how to choose the perfect night riding setup for you and how to optimise the setup once you have it. I learned a lot here that's definitely going to help me get the most out of the lights I have and I hope it helps you too. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Tom Place.
