Cyclists creeping about in the mornings now with no lights and/or reflective clothing on.

I was on the canal path this morning just before 7 and whilst not pitch black it was gloomy and visibility was not great. I had on a reflective jacket and front and back lights. Guy coming the other way had no lights and a forest green jacket on (which was really smart tbf). Against the murky canal water on one side and green trees on the other side he couldn't really be seen until he was right on me. On a busier road he would have been all but invisible and that becomes infinitely more dangerous for both him and other road users than it is on the canal path.
