Dear Troy Thiel, A free light program? A free helmet program? Maybe a free water bottle program since exhaustion is not good either? I was thinging this morning that our healthy discussions about available lights and diverse needs at least pointed to one sector of our lives where we aren't mandated a solution--one size fits all. As a child I had a nice zink plated flashlight clamp on my handlebars which held a standard sized round flashlight. It probably cost $.25 to $.50 at Mr. Benson's Western Auto where all the kids bought reflectors and bike gizmos. And now we can buy lights if we so choose which easily cost $200-$500. In fact such lights could easily cost more than the bikes themselves. But it is a choice. It is fine if a charity gives away reflectors and tapes and even cheap lights, although the switches will probably work about a week. But Troy, do we really want to: "should we bikies begin a movement for a FREE-----------, , , ?" Bike safety materials and enforcement of car-bike position laws is one matter which could be expanded, but demanding equipment is another. Eric Westhagen Troy Thiel wrote:
