Additionally, if you do shrink down the log file regardless if it's in FULL or SIMPLE recovery mode, keep an eye out for the LDF file to grow again. If it continues to grow quickly after you shrink it, then there are some HUGE transactions occurring and you will need to spend some time tracking down why the commits of huge transactions are so huge and get those tuned or split down into smaller transactions/batches. I've seen LDF files grow like this even in SIMPLE recovery mode because of poorly written queries from developers, report writers, and DBAs that don't understand this.
