Well, then we see it differently.
You probably don't want to ride here at night because you'll just be offended by my light that everyone else tells me is great and how well they could see me. There are enough car/bike collisions around here already and I don't plan on being part of that statistic.
Unfortunately, I encounter quite frequently cyclists with poor judgment who don't have sufficient lighting.
