Our riding group never rides at night (well, very seldomly). We believe it increases our chances of something bad happening by about 400%, due to: 1) over 40mph, you are outdriving your headlight 2) drunk idiots 3) Urge to have "just a couple" when stopping at a watering hole at 9pm.
This rule has kept us out of trouble for a long time. Someone else responded that: "No night riding for safety? You must be nuts! The trails where I ride in central Vermont are narrow and twisty. Riding at night gives you the added advantage of seeing the lights coming at you around corners. I prefer riding at night because its the safest time!"
