Even with a very bright front light it is difficult to see ahead anyone or anything unless they wear something reflective or carry a light. At risk are: runners (usually have some reflective bits), dogs (often wear flashy collars), bikers without lights (!), but most of all walkers - typically wearing dark-coloured clothes. All of which calls for cautious cycling and walkers 'brightening up'. Try taking Stumpy for a nocturnal outing along the Macc canal towpath and you'll see what I mean!<br />Nickwuxinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04878666928578305270noreply@blogger.com
