Team Helly Hansen use our Joystick and Piggyback batteries to help them keep going for longer, in the film clips below you can see the Exposure helmet mounts in action whether they're riding, skating or running.

"Exposure Lights (USE) really have helped us to ‘Own the Night’ and make a race-winning difference to our running and biking every time we’re out past bed-time (which is often)."  Team Helly Hansen, January 2010

You can watch all the action here, or for a quick summary of the adventure check out this short clip.

Exposure Lights are proud to be the sponsors of the first 24 hour National Championship.

The event is being held in Newcastleton on the 22-23rd May 2010 and is creating a buzz between the top 24 hour solo riders. The event is exclusive to solo competitors putting each rider on an equal standing to prove who is the best endurance athlete. The race is being held at the beginning of the season so there are no excuses of fatigue from other solo outings. Big names in the 24 hour world have already signed up showing their colours in trying to prove they are the best and most determined rider on the course.

The Lake Wettern bike race is epic. It is a one-lap road ride clockwise around a stretch of water so large you can’t see the other side. You start in waves of 50 people in 2 minute intervals any time between 8.30pm and 5.30am and you just keep on riding until you’re back at Motala on the East side of the lake. 19,000 people entered this year and I was lucky enough to win a place to ride thanks to a competition run by ‘wiggle’, organised by their supplier Nemesis; distributor of Catlike helmets and Gipiemme wheels amongst other things.

The atmosphere at the event is electric and streams and streams of people on bikes of all shapes and sizes constantly set forth over the starting mats and head out for their personal Vatternrundan challenge. Our 9.28pm start was a good slot and we had over 2 hours of daylight to enjoy the first 100km, which was down hill or flat and with a tail wind! I immediately stuck in behind an 8ft Dutch guy and barely pedalled for the first 9km, thinking ‘this is going to be easy!’ A puncture and 15 minutes of stress later and I wasn’t feeling so good. Having lost my 8ft windbreak I had to rip past group after group desperately seeking out a bunch that was my pace.

70km passed like this and still no group (although a few waifs and strays had begun to string out behind me). I stopped at the first big feed station and refilled my bottles, gathered my thoughts and shared a nod with Anders, my new cycling buddy from Stockholm who had been the only one of my collection of riders who had bothered helping me out on the front. It was agreed, silently, that we would ride together. He was a Vatternrundan veteran of 4 attempts and knew what it was all about. He was also a mountain biker and us fat-tyre folk tend to stick together!
