[Noisebridge-discuss] Bike lights workshop! Shine out into the night! This Friday

[Dan Cote]

This sounds great. I'd be glad to advise anyone who wants to make their
lights more dynamic with microcontrollers.

Regarding stealing, I never leave my bike outside for longer than 5
minutes. And if it is outside for 5 minutes, you can bet there's a u-lock
on it. I always advise the same to anyone in SF.
