I mean, typing "running lights bicycle" (without quotes) into google gets you the trek page as the first link.
Typing "running lights bicycle" (without quotes) into google scholar gets you a well executed study of running lights in Odense Denmark. Sheesh.

Thanks, Mr. Bill. I will check out the Danish study. I have not come across that one before. Google Scholar is new to me. I may change my understanding regarding the efficacy of daytime running lights. Still haven't been able to find anything on blinking lights. The quality of the Trek "research" has already been covered.
