Launched in 2023 with funding through the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning and the DALMAC Fund, LMB's Bike Lights for Michigan Nights (Light Love) Program distributed over 960 light sets and literature explaining the benefits of active lighting for bicyclists as well as pedestrians.
We have distributed lights in over 20 communities throughout Michigan by 27 distinct organizations with the primary focus on getting the lights into the hands of "invisible cyclists"; we define these cyclists who depend on bicycling as their primary mode of transportation due to social and economical constraints. These organizations included police agencies, local neighborhood community groups, bicycle co-ops/shops, and homeless shelters.
New in 2025 we have added reflective belts to our lighting toolkits. These belts can be distributed to cyclists and pedestrians. When filling out the form please let us know which user group you be servicing.
