Rub it, Flip it, Slap it down!

By RL Policar
February 28, 2012 1 Min Read

100 points to the first person to tell me where I got that title from? Here’s a hint, it’s from the 90’s…ok back to what I came here for. So got this great idea from our sister site, BikeCommuters.com. Not sure how many of you have this problem, but when I go night riding, If I hit a bump my headlight will often slip and rotate forward or backward, making it sorta dangerous because I can’t see where I’m going or what obstacles are ahead of me. So Miriam “Five-O” Gee of BikeCommuters.com posted a clever fix to this this issue. Not sure why I never thought about this before, but it sure makes sense.

With that in mind, I took my NiteRider light which is prone to the slippage and hung it upside down. This should alleviate all that moving around!

    Smack it up, flip it, rub it down, oh no! BBD! Do me baby, Wait, er no RL, don’t do me. I’ll leave that “pleasure” to Lady P. In fact, stay away from when it’s sexy time. But keep the 90s hip hop bumpin.

    Hey RL,
    Great idea,but what about the gyroscopic effects of the earths gravitional pull to the left that makes for the cause of the rotational pull of the forward lateral increments in the S.C.M.S.B.A (Self. Contained. Mechanical. Sun. Beam. Apparatus).
