It will be my first time on a road bike cycling through Autumn and winter. So far i have only cycled in dry warm weather (just been lucky with timing). I know plenty about how to dress as i do a lot of hiking in all seasons, and wind proofing, rain-proofing and ventilation are very important, but when it comes to lights and lumen brightness, (I live in the countryside) I have no idea. I understand about been seen, but been able to see in front of me I'm unsure.
Also my tyres are slicks, but unless im wrong, what is the point of tread on such narrow tyres. Im curious as the country roads are wet now most of the time. Is there any point changing tyres for winter
