Ah, the dark mornings!
Discussion
Not starting a rant, just a bit of a heads-up/request to please all check your lights when cycling on these dark mornings.
Had a fairly low-speed collision with a cyclist during my run into work this morning; he had a rather pukka front light, but hadn't realised the batteries had run out thus rendering him rather stealthy! He was very apologetic and whilst I was annoyed at first (I'm lit up like a Xmas tree!) I had to chuckle! It was just one of those things and could happen to anyone.
Stay safe!

It is for this reason that I have at least two lights pointing each way, hopefully they won't both run out at the same moment!Had a fairly low-speed collision with a cyclist during my run into work this morning; he had a rather pukka front light, but hadn't realised the batteries had run out thus rendering him rather stealthy!
