I did a spot of night riding last night. I had:-

Front
2x Cateye HL-EL300
1 x helmet-mounted white LED
1 x flashing white LED

Rear
1 x rack mounted *bright* red LED
1 x ordinary British Standard red rear light
1 x red flashing LED

On self and/or bike

Reflectors on wheels (spokes) & pedals
reflective gilet
reflective arm bands
reflective bands round ankles

A local spotty youth, as a cycled by, cried out "F**king h*ll! You're not going
to get run over looking like that!" Which was the general point of the exercise
;-)

Traffic did give me a wide berth...

Cheers, helen s
