I ride early in the dark. I think my ankle bracelets found in running department of Walmart are a nice reflective touch. Candlepower is key...I was almost hit Wednesday, a car pulled out and I had my headlights right on him, he just kept coming, we should remember that the cars that are out there are looking for car headlights, there is no eyecontact...so I am gonna look into the above increase in candlepower.
