I come across two or three guys on occasion that have such bright lights (on the MUP) that I can see them coming for miles. I typically say "too bright" as we pass and get a "sorry." However, I see them again and same thing. They must not know that I cannot see the trail when they come by.
I run on my lowest - and no flashing. I don't understand the need for flashing on the MUP anyway (like the guy today in the middle of the day).
