Assuming it will be dark, or low light, you need front and rear lights, minimum. LED lights are ok for the rear but a bright white light that illuminates the road is necessary on the front. You probably need to carry some spare batteries for them. And a loud bell or horn. Many cyclists might also put reflective strips on their bikes or clothes
