No, really. It's pitch black out on the trails at 5 am. I run ALL of my lights. 1. There are skunks all over and I like to be able to spot them before the tails go up. 2. My flasher is a measly 1/2 watt. If that bugs anyone, then they're sure to be bothered by the 3 watt light mounted beside it. 3. There are already two ninjas that refuse to be seen at that hour every morning, I don't want to be a third. 4. I'm not going to sacrifice my individual safety just to please someone else.
To respond to this and similar posts, who said anything about turning your lights off? I'm just asking folks to set their headlamps to solid on the MUTs, and if it's not too much trouble, aim them down so that they don't shine right in other MUT users' eyes. Or palm them when approaching someone, as mentioned by several posters.

And sure, keep your rear blinkies on. You'll be looking at my solid rear soon enough (double entendre intended).
