Even though it breaks my summer-loving heart just to mention it, it’s getting darker earlier.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 This sneaks up on a lot of cyclists every year, but I suspect it will hit a lot of the new riders this year.\u00c2\u00a0 So, please, a gentle reminder – if there’s even the slightest chance you’re going to be out on the road after 7p (as of today, anyway), please light up.\u00c2\u00a0 It doesn’t have to be an expensive HID kit.\u00c2\u00a0 Knogs<\/a> will do.\u00c2\u00a0 But you need something<\/a>.<\/p>\n
