The night of Oct 10th/11th had a rare occurrence in Kingston. That occurrence was a solar storm powerful enough that despite the local light pollution one could see the Northern Lights. After watching them earlier out on the street out front.
Night Ride Of Solar Storm/Northern Lights
On a whim geared up and went for a wee night ride and headed to the Backyard Trails to see what one could see from the woods. Easy spin in to the Dirt Camp.
Turned off the bike lights and wasn't disappointed to see what I saw. I won't type much as it was more an easy night ride to a spot in the Backyard Trails to see the second big local event after the Solar Eclipse.

After sometime watching the Northern Lights show and getting photos. The temps had dropped a little bit and was starting to chill so time to head home. And just before headed out on a whim turned on the helmet light and took a photo while looking towards the direction the Northern Lights where coming from. And could see how bright they are in the sky even with the bright helmet light on.
Rode home and had a bonus extra little ride and adventure to add in for the year. Which is a good thing after the last 5 years.
