Night-time Riding

I can't believe it took me so long to discover the joy of riding at night (ie. to get bike lights). This evening i rode into the city for a 6pm function, with food and drink (which replenished me nicely).

A shorter ride into West End for 7.30pm was even more enjoyable as traffic had died down by then. And by 9.30ish (i'm guessing) i barely encountered a car on the ride back to the bikeway.

Two things i've learnt:
1. Riding is even more fun with a friend
2. A scarf is a great addition when riding in winter at night.
(fortunately, i did not have to learn that the hard way)
