A light on front and back. I would highly recommend you wear a brightly colored jacket (not dark, black or other fashionable attire!) so cars can see you no question. A light on front and back.

Once you have a collision, there's only so much a helmet can do. If you’re going to be out after dark, please use lights, even for short trips, even on bike trails.
