Com'on CCanuck...you know the solution...ride faster!!

Always take a phone and usually a riding partner where possible. I did do my first night MTB ride recently It was awesome. Felt very safe when on the bike path with other comuters, then when I hit the 'off trail' I was fine, only saw two other bikes and two doggies with their flashing collar lights!! I even tried a bit of single track I ride in the day, so I was familiar with it. I had no fear and figured, they can't see me with my blinding lights! Thought maybe I should have tucked my pigtails in though for anyone riding behind me. It was only about 5.30-7pm, so not too late
