Thanks for the recommendation on the Exposure lights.  I'll see what I can find in our local shops.  A larger chain (similar to REI) carries Cygo-Lite (reasonably priced) as well as Light and Motion (expensive). 

Jim -- good on ya for helping out.  They must have wondered what was coming at them out of the gloom, all brightly lit.  I'm not sure how common night riding is down there, but up here I don't recall ever seeing anyone at advanced stages of dusk out riding in the woods with lights, and certainly never on the adjacent rail trail in the dark.  There are 24 hour races here, so it is done, but I just haven't encountered anyone in my occasional dusk rides.  When we start doing night rides, we will almost certainly be the only ones out.
