Last night I was driving to return some movies when a cyclist went by in the opposite direction. It was fully dark out, no lights, no helmet, single lane road, gravel shoulder, steep ditches, 80 kph speed limit (~50 mph), and no streetlights on that section. I only saw him about half a second before I passed him. I was looking for the ambulance lights on the way home, but I guess he cheated death that time.
