Heard some people have a front light and also a helmet light. Opinions?
Heard some people use to blinkies on the back.... opinions?

suggestions, opinons, and ideas along with advise.... all welcome!
Yes, that's been my experience, too. They do work best for riding in the dark. The lights with more lumens do tend to be brighter, and I have seen many people with blinkies on the back as well as a few with helmet lights.

The ones I can't figure are the ones with front blinkies. After about 30 sec of that I'd be looking for a stick to put between my teeth so I wouldn't swallow my tongue.
