Not as long as you are lit up like a christmas tree for the blind returning from the pub.

I love autumnal road night rides.. makes you ride faster!

Rear lights equally as important as the front, invest well in both

More motivation than me but sounds like a decent plan.

My alarm was set for 5.30 this morning to get a decent ride in this morning. 2 year old decided he wasn't going to sleep between 2 and 5 put and end to that though. Plotting a ride after he goes down tonight though. That reminds me, need to find my chargers!

With lights and reflectives you are much more visible at night than in daylight.

I like night road riding. There is something very therapeutic about riding along on your own wee bubble of light. Just watch out for the potholes.
