Having been considering night riding for a while - my days are too long to get outside on the bike before dark most days at the mo, I have been taking a critical look at lights on bikes.
I really dislike flashing front lights. I cannot work out depth perception accurately.
The best for visibility and knowing where a bike is is a large solid light - from the front these look like a slow scooter.
I have also disliked rear flashing lights (red of course) until last night and this guy had red flashes on his helmet, seat bag and frame - because there were three lots of flashing lights I had no problem at all with depth perception, plus I knew he HAD to be a cyclist.
So that is the set-up I am thinking of getting...
Night riding on my country road under the moon REALLY appeals...
