I do a lot of riding in the Texas hill country, some of it at night. I have mounted some super bright LEDs on the front of the bike that throw light a long ways down the road. They don't do anything to eliminate the problem but it gives me more time to re-act. At night I slow down and try to be super vigilant. The Iron Butt Riders all ride at night and they believe in lots of light and I am just following their lead. I have seen deer on the road and in the ditch but so far no contact. Maybe I am just lucky but lighting everything up can't hurt.
