Hello,
I'm going to start bike commuting very soon and would just like some imput on some safety gear and just basic tips and tricks to make the commute more enjoyable. It will also be on a recumbent bike.

I will be commuting about 26 miles round trip each day (hopefully year round) and much of it will be at night. So any info about a good lighting system would be great also. Half of the commute will be on back country roads and the other half will be in town.

Thanks for the help,
Dustin
