I have my Garmin control the lights on the Trek, and that works pretty well.
I have those Specialized Stix lights on my other bike, and they are manual control only.

I've never had any complaints about the light in a group setting, but it's still nice to be able to turn it off as a courtesy while still getting the benefit of the radar.

Shopping for a wedding photographer, and trying to hit a price point. I think I'd rather be roasted by a cannibal on an open spit.
It seems the current lingo is "investment" rather than "price." They are only fooling themselves.

And then you have to deal with the bride and her mom.

Nothing worse than the bride and dad/groom walking down the aisle with everyone holding their phone up trying to the the "perfect" photo.

Tooling along in good spirits though. I have a nice collection of audio books saved up.
AND. I'm resting comfortably in the hammock. Imagine being laid up in that infernal bed! The timing of this one was good.

That's a different relationship than wife and step-mom.
