Life Insurance

I'll be thinking of a Dinotte tai light and two MS Tailight where each MS tailight are mounted 45 degree outward. For the front, get a Bike Ray III and either a MS900 or better yet, a Geimni Titan. The Bike Ray provide flood while the Titan provide throw. Then on your helmet put a PB super flash turbo and a MG XP-G at 450 lumens.

Get some blinking led pants cuff strap and a reflective vest. A bright hi viz cycling jacket. An Airzound is also good. A good mirror to see what's about to run you over and that life insurance policy.
