Edge marking sounds like a possibility. <br /><br />I hear the Cambridge Cycle Campaign have a snagging list for the GB cycle way so it might be worth checking with them. My personal need is to make the barriers reflective.<br /><br />I remember last winter, a lot of cyclists on the GB track had some really underpowered 'in-town' lights and were struggling to see anything at all.<br /><br />Good lights can be very costly but are well worth it to keep you riding all year round in the sticks.
