I haven't done it in ages, but I used to ride at night almost daily. Err, nightly. Years ago, I found myself riding home through the worst part of Seattle at 3am, completely drunk. It was great. No one hassled me, I had the city to myself and I got home safely. I gotta go charge my lights..... Night biking is the best. I haven’t done it in ages, but I used to ride at night almost daily.

I gotta go charge my lights…..

I am not an avid rider but I do get out on occasion. A few times I have found myself riding after dark and in spite my initial fear it's been a non issue thus far. I do have a tail blinker and mainly ride on roads with streetlights. It certainly has turned out to be less of an issue than I would have thought before doing it myself. Great post.

Left home at 5am. Best part of the ride was from 5am to sun up. Of course I had lights and all appropriate safety gear. I agree, night riding is very enjoyable if done proplerly.

As long as you have a good headlight, taillight, a little reflective gear and ride with common sense you'll fine. Plus here in Spokane were I live there are generally a lot fewer cars on the road around my neighborhood in the evening hours.
