Hi everyone! I hope I'm posting this in the right place.

I am fairly new to biking, so forgive me if I'm asking something obvious, but I didn't find anything in a search.

I am biking to and from work and to various stores near my home. I have a Wald quick-release mesh front basket (This one: http://www.waldsports.com/index.cfm/...eshbasket.html ) and I am having a heck of a time with a headlight. This is a real issue for me right now, since I think since I got my bike I have yet to ride when it's NOT dark out!

It's not the best picture of what's going on with my handlebars, but this is the only picture I have online right now: http://21daystopangie.files.wordpres.../11/bikers.jpg

(And that's my dad in the picture with me. Us in our bike gear with our bikes. Aren't we cute? )

Anyway, my headlight isn't anything stellar to begin with. It's actually something that doubles as a flashlight and it straps onto the handlebar. I could easily move this elsewhere if there's anywhere else that would be a good place to put it.

Let me know if anyone needs more information or clarification, and I'll try to get a better picture tonight if that would help.

So my main questions are:

1) Where do I put my headlight?
and
2) If I should get a different one, what should I get?

Thanks for any input!
