Still no lights, but I haven't been riding at night. I leave my house JUST before dawn, and cars really can't come through my neighborhood, so by the time I'm out into the public it's light.
I really should get a new bag though. I've done a little research, and people generally favor panniers over backpacks, but I tend to go up/down stairs and in/out of buildings a lot so I think I'm going to get a good, solid wearable bag. I'd like suggestions for something that breathes nicely and doesn't cost a fortune. Anyone have some advice for me?
