It's a jungle out there!
I've recently readied my musty Cannondale for afterdark commuting duties (evening course twice a week). Pannier is a must to stop the dreaded sweaty back; tried to balance off visibility with stealth/perceived 'crapness' - to avoid attracting attention when chained up. I carry two locks, removeable lights and have bolted the seat post and wheels. Definitely need a loud bell or horn to alert jaywalkers on phones/ipods! Otherwise, so far - so good, we'll see!
