EDIT:

The path is illuminated by thousands of twinkling stones and was inspired by Van Gogh’s world-famous painting, Starry Night.

Is that after a visit to one of those Dutch 'cafes'?
Cool in either case.

There are more bicycles in the city of Amsterdam than there are in whole of North America.

From the thread title I was picturing a super soaker filled with glow in the dark pixie dust that you could spray on a route and it would glow for 30 minutes while you climb it and then evaporate with no more harm to the environment then puppies breathe.

Well John get yourself a gopro if you don't already have one, pickup a couple of pixies, and have at it. We'll all anticipate a cool video. The technology is probably there, but check with Doc Hartouni.

While were waiting.

A year and a half ago when the radioactive seeds in my prostate were still active, glow in the dark routes were all the rage for me.

You can buy an endoscope/boroscope for almost nothing on Amazon or eBay Jim.

We'll all be waiting for your video. If you're stuck on a sound track for it, how about tiny tim?

Ron Anderson has been using them for years.

I don't usually consult with those kind of pixies...

rock pixies, yes,

glow-in-the-dark pixies, not so much.
