..for the front light
It was a bit misty this morning so I put the lights back on the bike. However after a bit when I was on the main Road in primary position I had a woman pull out on me from a side road cutting me up, she then proceded to immediately turn left cutting me up again, to another minor road, I'm glad I had slowed down or I'd been over her bonnet. I'll give her the benifit of the doubt that my front light wasn't very bright in these conditions or perhaps I need new batteries.
If I had a baby elephant, who would take it for walks?

I think you're right about the search light

Nah. To mangle Oscar Wilde a bit. Pulling out on you once, that MIGHT suggest a weak light (and a dozy driver). Cutting you up twice looks like carelessness...

Today is the longest day of the year and you need your lights?

Perhaps she needs to change the batteries.

It was definitely a bit misty on the east coast this morning; didn't help that my shades kept steaming up too - that turned it into a real pea-souper !
Cheers !

I don't think she was a local from looks of her and the car, just too interested in rat running to notice a cyclist

It's not the longest day of the year as all day lengths are the same.
