I am sure none of us sound minded cyclists would ever think about riding the streets at night without the proper reflective gear or clothing. A headlight and some sort of blinking warning lights are a must in twilight or night time riding. But, how many of of don’t even think twice about those same rational decisions during the day! Well maybe we should.

Sorry for the lack of updates here. It has been a hectic few weeks. Promotion at work, means more responsibilities and learning new tools, good in some respects. Being put in charge of a team also means longer hours and more accountability. End of the quarter also means account reviews and in this economic climate those are even more important than ever.
