On friday night many of us will have our bikes sitting in trailers at our respective hotels. I would like to propose that when we go by our trailers at night we turn at least one of the lights in our car on. This will signal to other riders that we own the car/trailer/bike we are standing next to and will make it easier to spot people that shouldn't be there...
