I have given up on the roads completely after becoming a parent. I am simply not willing to place my life in the hands of random drivers. I get to see a lot of crushed limestone and beautiful nature without smelling car exhaust too. Trails make me happy!

Some good points Martyn. I tend to use the hyper flash setting in the day as well. The flash attracts attention whilst the steady beam provides your location. You are right about lights that are overly bright. They simply blind other road users who then can't really tell where you are.
