If you're yet to get your hands on a decent front light for the winter months, Chain Reaction Cycles are giving you an unmissable opportunity to get your hands on a bit of kit that'll keep you seeing through the dark.
The DealCatcher didn't stop there. Not only has he uncovered an incredible coupon code that'll see you save £10 extra on clearance items when you spend over £75, he's found two more fantastic deals from Hargroves and Zovelo.
The guys over at Hargroves have slashed the price of their Specialized Pro Road Shoes by 38%, while the deal merchants over at Zovelo have quite the bargain on a pair of Proviz Nightrider Hi-Viz jackets that'll keep you seen in the dark.

As far as bargains on bike lights go, you'll do very well to beat this one before the clocks go back.
We reviewed the Lezyne Deca Drive earlier this year, and our man Stuart Kerton gave it a great review, which you can read below.
The consensus is, if you can put up with the slightly difficult-to-read mode selection, you've got a pretty good light for its full-price price tag.
At this price, it's a bargain.
Hargroves Cycles
Your toes won't be freezing yet. And if the winter gets cold enough for you to be worrying about thawing your feet at the end of your ride, there are plenty of things - like toe covers and overshoes - that you can do before investing in a pair of winter-specific cycling shoes.
So, with that in mind, now is the perfect time to splash out on a cut-price pair of normal road shoes, like this brilliant pair of Specialized Pro Road Shoes from Hargroves.
These are lighter, more secure and will perform far better than any pair of winter shoes that you may be tempted to throw your money at over the coming weeks.
We suggest investing in some shoe covers and a really decent, comfortable pair of road shoes.
At least until the snow sets in. We might have to have another conversation then.
Zovelo
Finally, being seen in the dark is far, far more important than you being able to see every rock and pothole in your way. Other road users are a much bigger danger to you than you are to yourself.
So, if you've not got a decent hi-viz jacket to see you through the darker months, now's the time to invest.
This number from Proviz will see you right, as well. We gave it a smashing 9/10 when we reviewed the women's version.

Agreed but in the HGV sphere at the moment as far as I am aware there are no courses that would cover these issues and as the legislation is...
Specific and limited ways surely ?

Thanks. I guess the question is "need". If the road is busy, it sounds like it is a desired route between places? In which case (given this an...
Don't know what you mean. I thought my suggestion was entirely practical.
