Night vision. Examples of species that possess this quality include the Spotted Eagle-Owl (Bubo africanus) and the domestic cat (Felis silvestris catus). However, not all species are privileged enough to possess this nocturnal quality. Example… the human species (homo sapiens).

Unlike shooting during the day, shooting at night has it’s drawbacks. Our lack of night vision meant that we had to set up way more lights than we normally do, even for short sections of trail. Set-up would start just before sundown each day, and by the time we were finished shooting, the sun would be on it’s way back up to greet us for the day. Lack of sleep was definitely a challenge, and by the end of the shoot you’d think we were on set of the Walking Dead, not unReal.

That being said, challenges are meant to be overcome. The night shift isn’t all that bad, but we definitely have a new appreciation for a good night’s sleep.

 That's a good idea. Not really sure why, and maybe it's just me, but I feel like someone has done that before...

 My bones is middle sized, but the curve gives it a nice contact patch. Endurboner.

 Brett is definitely one of my top favorites. His riding style is amazing and he is extremely versatile. He also seems to have a certain kindness about him. Something very organic and genuine in his voice. I love how honest and vulnerable he is in his interviews. #nohomo

 I think that was possibly the worst writing I've ever encountered on PB. Something needs to change.
