A Question of Color

[Nanci]

Many of the recumbent riders in my area have those Slow Moving Vehicle triangle signs either on the back of their seat or up on a big antenna-thing. They are VERY noticeable!!

I think that must have been what we saw on a couple of bikes one night recently. We could see them from quite a distance, but we had no idea what they were until we got close! It's a fairly busy street and I think I would have felt nervous riding on it after dark, anyway, but those things WERE visible.

Thanks for the links, mimi. I think I'll get some!

I b'lieve the down low glow stuff is *not* waterproof!!!

knog usa has some kewl "bar-end" lights ... tho' I need to get new batteries for them and I need to ductape them in place, I love lights sticking out of my handlebars (which are flat).
Much can be said for reflective tape, too.
