As far as a cheap light lighting up the ground in front of the bike...here is an option. Mount the light on a front pannier braze-on. This can be done by removing the braze-on screw, and using it to mount a piece of PVC pipe to the side of the fork. This gives you a low mounting point for a cheap headlamp. The low mounted light with cause objects in your path to cast a long shadow, and show up really well. I've used this method to mount a secondary headlamp to supplement my handlebar mounted light.
