Riding in evening or night

Ok, I figure I know the answers but wanted to ask any how. As we slowly lose daylight sooner and finally in Nov move off daylight savings, the question in my mind has been how can I keep riding during the week? I recently got some lights for my bike as a gift and have been thinking hard about continuing my daily loop to, around White Rock, and back to house but this will require riding after dark. This is something I have always stay away from but with the gains I have made over the summer, I really don't want to have to start over next summer.

So do any of you ride at night during the winter and if so what steps do you take to be safe? Just stay off the roads and ride trails or take less traveled roads?

Thanks
Ray
