With more than 4000 km. still to add, there will be many times when the Trans Canada Trail takes to the highway.
This is when it's particularly important to have reflective tape on your bike, or on the pedals, and reflective clothing.
One of the items I purchased before doing the PEI trail in 2003 is a mesh (cool) white vest that reflects light. In my backpack, it's weight is negligible and takes up almost no space. Late evenings on paved roads with traffic, it is such a bonus.
Also, there's a rear flashing light one can install on a bike that flashes only as you pedal, and can be turned off when not required.
The life you save my be your own.
