Similar story for me at 6am today. 6 cyclists and four with no lights at all. One of these idiots looked like he was auditioning for a remake of the Milk Tray adverts, completely dressed in black (or very dark) clothing.Passed 3 people today with no lights on. This was between 05.00 and 05.15 this morning and on an unlit road. One didn't even have any hi viz at all. What is wrong with them do they think their bullet proof or something. Lights don't cost a fortune. The one with no hi viz on I almost hit and I was on my bike. IDIOTS ! ( rant over with )

How these bull's lugs survive is beyond me.
Yet they do survive...
The poor souls that seem not to survive seem to be 'experienced' commuters/cyclists
I'm beginning to see this sadly, is often the case.Yet they do survive...

On the motorway, traffic generally doesn't flow as quickly as some might like to claim. Stick to an indicated 75 (in reality around the 70 limit) and you'll make good progress and need to overtake much of the traffic.

unlit cyclists are visible to just about everyone who is moving on our roads at a speed appropriate to the conditions.
I get tired of these posts where someone says they saw a cyclist without lights and bla bla bla.
Do these people think they have particularly good eyesight and their ability to see unlit cyclists is shared with only a tiny minority of the population?
Well hear this you would be supersighters, unlit cyclists are visible to just about everyone who is moving on our roads at a speed appropriate to the conditions.
What's more, the unlit cyclist is even more visible when cars are not being driven nearby by eejit drivers who switch on their lights when they don't need lights for seeing.
