Bicycle Errands on the Rise, Due to Fuel Prices

This trend is not a surprise. Many of us have decided to take our bicycles on short errands, instead of our cars. This is not only cheaper for us, but also healthier and in turn helps the environment as well!

I don't know about you, but for me, riding a bicycle, takes me back to my childhood. It is so invigorating to feel the wind in your face and be totally in control without depending on a 2,000 pound, gasoline guzzling car to take you where you want to go! Plus, it's actually a healthy workout! The sense of freedom you get... to even ride to the beach or lakeside area and not be ticketed or charged for parking! There is a catch though, most of the time, there are cars around and you need to make sure they are aware of your presence and take safety precautions!

This is where the Flashing Safety Light 8 Function LED item comes into play. A must if you ever take your bike out at night. Especially when there are gasoline guzzling cars around... This safety light has 5 super bright LED bulbs that have 7 flashing functions: constant light, fast flashing, slow flashing, middle to end flashing, end to middle flashing, strobe and double blink! It also includes a 120 degree rotatable bicycle attachment for attaching the light and a bright arm band too.

This bicycle safety light is also handy for walkers and joggers.
