Bicycling Magazine June issue has an important, detailed & interesting multipage special report on bike safety
I salute their new editor in chief Leah Flickinger for it. 41% of 4 times a week cyclists have been hit by cars; stats on harassment and aggresive behavior of drivers, drivers distracted by texting, 2016 cycling deaths: Boston 0, New York 18, L.A.22....FL is a "deadly state" for cyclists, etc.
Elewhere in this issue there is a interesting piece on the effectivenes of using lights (front & rear) by cyclists. I have started using them on some long distance daytime solo rides and the truck and car drivers seem to be giving me more room.

does anyone use a combo computer and light mount on their handlebars?
I want to mount my cycle computer on my handlebar with a light underneath it. I saw one option on Amazon for a K-Edge mount and a Light and Motion adapter and light. Has anyone used a Light and Motion front light? Barfly makes a cheaper plastic version fo the mount. Are there other options out there, especially for the adapter and the front light ?
The saddest story you'll ever hear about riding a stationary bike.
