Get some environmentally oriented groups to provide some seed money and volunteer work to set up the swap locations and you could encourage people to actually use the lights beyond the first time they wear through the first set of batteries.<BR/><BR/>Just an idea.<BR/><BR/>rob hawksrob hawkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884613886419587605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-91653148895770574932007-11-07T10:23:00.000-08:002007-11-07T10:23:00.000-08:00Hi Janet,The lights are Planet Bike Beamer 3 head ...Hi Janet,<BR/><BR/>The lights are Planet Bike Beamer 3 head lights and Planet Bike Blinky 3 tail lights. Weatherproof, 100 hours of life on 2 AA batteries in the head lights and 2 AAA batteries in the tail lights. The nice thing is the Planet Bike lights come with batteries and Planet Bike has a good program to support advocacy, so we get a good deal from them.<BR/><BR/>And Beth, I'm pretty sure Mark's nifty purple jacket with the stars and moons was a custom made gift for him. I've never seen another one like it.Kent Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607372827627527450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-9210916757606663932007-11-07T10:12:00.000-08:002007-11-07T10:12:00.000-08:00Hi Ken,What make/model of lights did you donate?

And WHERE can I find that cool purple jacket with the reflective stars and moons all over it? It's a nice alternative to the glaucoma green seen all over today's bicyclists.<BR/><BR/>I'll be trotting out my reflective fashionista best for Portland's "See And Be Seen" ride on the 15th.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
