I just rode 30 miles home in the dark. 2 things I realized, first look for the bright lines painted on the road not the road itself, second cars headlights don't turn either with the wheel... Don't over think it just turn...

Very cool. I commute on 2 wheels for many reasons. I do like that it lessens waste and fuel use. I was very excited that my "new" bike is getting a consistent 50 mpg. It has been as high as 55 and as low as 48 but still quite good...

I love to ride at night. I guess when you turn you still look where you want to go only you will have to look at the edge of your beam. You get used to it I actually just turn I don't really give it much thought now that i think about it. We used to race in the mountains at night back in the day and at illegal speeds it did get interesting but for normal cruising I can't remember ever having it be any issue... Do it slowly until your comfortable with it I guess...
