Even though the weather is getting colder and wetter, many people are still getting out of the house and onto their bikes. Whether they are commuting to work, racing on a track or simply enjoying a leisurely evening ride, there is one thing every type of bike-enthusiast can agree on: safety. One of the simplest and most effective forms of bike safety is proper lighting. And what kind of lights make the best bike safety lights? Why, LED lights, of course!
Don’t worry – you don’t need to strap a clunky LED flashlight to your helmet for safety purposes. There are many great LED bike lights available that are both stylish and functional. Here are a few of the top LED bike lights available. (PS – They make great holiday gifts, too!)
You may not believe it, but the debate over whether LED light technology is better than more traditional fluorescent bulbs is still a hot issue. Proponents of LED bulbs claim that the lights are more energy efficient, last longer and are more environmentally friendly. However, there are many that still think the higher up-front costs and relatively undeveloped technology of LEDs make them a less than optimum choice for the average home or business environment.
Before you decide on whether or not to choose LED tubes over fluorescent tubes, make sure you understand the pros and cons of both products. The following are a few categories you should consider when deciding on a bulb, and how both LED and fluorescent tubes measure up.

Bill Monroe, a columnist on “all things outdoors” for The Oregonian, published an article today answering questions from his readers about the upcoming spring Chinook salmon run. See what he had to say and what anglers should be getting ready for.
First, he encouraged anglers not to be discouraged with the recent week’s lack-luster performance. “C’mon … it’s the first week of March!” he writes, “There’s a reason it’s called a ‘spring’ instead of ‘winter’ Chinook run.”
