That's what I thought too and ran to get my AR. Annie wouldn't let me shoot them down though. ??

Well, for different reasons, but one for each of them, really.

An old abandoned fish hatchery, it was a little foggy that day so I didn't get the clarity I wanted. That's the Ranger bottom right to give an idea of scale.

Added some white reflective tape on my bike to make it more visible at night. A strip on the side frames and a strip around the around the edge of the pedals...

Safety first - it’s gets dark early there and it’s tough to be seen - having it on those pedals will really get drivers’ attention. Even if you’re not riding on the road, you’re crossing a street at some point. ?

Thanks Duke! I'm hoping the tape on the pedals will reflect a revolving motion when riding so onlookers will recognize a bike being pedaled.

Lighting is important as the primary night visibility source of light. Reflectors secondary. Have a white 3-way headlight on the handlebars and a white 3-way safety light mounted on the front fork.
Have 3 lights in the rear. Two 3-way reds and the light strip around the rear bag is a 3-way green displaying to the back and sides...battery operated
