I aim my dinotte about 20' in front of my tire. That light allows me to see up close really well and further away ok. I then have a fenix LD2 on my helmet which allows me to highlight anywhere or extend the light field further forward or to the sides depending on the situation.
I think if it was my only light I'd have to point it a little further ahead to avoid overrunning it at speed with the potential loss of a little crack/pothole sneaking close to me.
I always leave them steady at night. One is blinking when it is light out or if I was somewhere that is completely lit up by steetlights like it was daylight.
