Winter visibility on your bike!

It still surprises me when i'm out either on my bike or even in my car just how many Cyclists/People On Bikes I see or almost DON'T SEE with inadequate or no lights on their bikes. I have long been an advocate of daytime use of rear L.E.D lights on bikes but it seems that many people don't even use them at night! There are so many cheap options available now that there is really no excuse to be riding around in the dark. Many rear lights are now USB rechargeable removing the necessity for batteries.
The Lezyne Femto Drive at £12.99 and also the Moon Lunar at £14.99 are both popular compact, easy to fit and very bright rear lights. The Moon is USB too. Another popular option is the Fibreflare. This is a long stay mounted rear light that emits a super bright glow.
In addition to rear lights i would always recomend a high vis jacket and reflective strips. There are also reflective fluro bag covers available like the Respro Hump for around £45.00
