Nighttime Riding - Are headlights really needed?
Recently bought the cateye LD1000 tailight and the Cateye EL400 headlight.
Both work really well.
The taillight is great especially in the oscillating mode. It makes me very visible from vehicles approaching form the rear.
The headlight pretty much serves as a defensive light. When riding in the inner city most streets I commute on have a street lamp. The headlight itself does not illuminate the road. Some pedistrians approaching from the opposite direction have commented that the light is blinding to them.
Do I really need a defensive light on the front of my bicycle?
