Comment | Tough call! I’d lean towards GWR, hi vis and plenty of lights and take your space on the road to avoid being hidden or being doored by a parked car. Be SEEN. Even if it means a car behind you has to go ever so slightly slower for a bit. You’d only catch up to them at the next set of lights anyway. I cycle Paisley road west most days to work and I started wearing a helmet cam as well, may be worth considering as I feel it might be deterring driving folks from being quite as pushy. I use a techalogic one.
You can def have lights that will work in the park but I also totally get the feeling of not being safe even if you are on a fairly speedy bike. Plus, when it gets colder and icy the parks tend to be much slippier than the roads (which I found out all too painfully last winter!). |
