Jelly of your group rides. Having to sort out some work/school issues before I can settle down in my groove and join some groups.
I was looking at getting a Cygolite Dash 320 to replace or supplement my MEC light for better visibility at night.
For me the key was just being extra careful city riding at night. Not that this is an accurate stat but I rode from burnaby to yaletown all winter (7am and 6pm, so basically dark all the time). In a way it was a lot of fun because I had the road to myself, but I always made sure vehicles saw me before attempting to pass or cross them. I see idiots all the time that just fly by cars expecting them to stop, run stop signs into oncoming traffic, bike with no lights, etc. I facepalm/smh all the time when I commute. I know how hard it is to see a cyclist when you're driving in the rain + night. For me the worst part about riding in the rain is wet socks that don't dry before the end of the day lol.
