unless the light is very bright and focused correctly, it isn't useful.
I learned my lesson about getting a good light the first time it got dark early and I found myself hoping for cars to go by so I could see where I was on the road
(and I had a front light at the time as well)
The sustrans folks seem to do what they are able to. But, for instance, there are four local hybrid/casual routes in my area that the council produced maps for about 15 years ago.
I don't think the council has paid any attention to the routes since, and it's a shame as the routes are good lengths (10-15 miles) with pretty scenery and the right amount of hill and off-roading for the average weekend warrior and their family.
- Nursie 14y agoYeah, I got a front light with my bike that was pretty crappy and very soon realised that it was no use at all for the dark shared pedestrian-cycle paths I was taking on my commute home. Very quickly learned that a decent headlight is essential. I'd vote for a candidate (at local council or parliamentary level) that promised to give more consideration to a poper network of cycle paths in Britain.
