I have been a semi serious to serious biker for many years up north, and all I can say, my friend, is be very careful biking down here in TV. There are LOTS of folks on medication, sight and hearing impaired, etc., including many drivers who have not driven in decades, until their spouse has passed. You NEED a bright headlight as well as a bright taillight.
I was almost killed by a driver who did not see me, she seemed to be on some sort of meds., or maybe drunk, I don't know. There seems to be some drivers down here that do not like bikers.
Ride defensibly, and BE CAREFUL!
