    I acquired mine as a road-find. They're actually just a length of those orange ties people use to hold stuff down in their pickup truck beds. This particular bit seems to have frayed and fallen off; I picked it up, washed it, and threaded it through my helmet. It's long enough it hangs down my back. Alas, they're a tad heavy to actually fly out behind me unless I'm going scary-fast or it's super windy, but they move around some when I'm riding.

    I've gotten lots of comments from people on organized rides, pretty much all positive. I've also heard from people who drive by me that they're really noticeable, flapping around as I ride along. Since that's the whole point, I'm happy to hear it works.

    Woo-hoo! My friend said she's going to come, too. I led a 10 mile ride a few weeks back, and that was the farthest she'd gone, so she's a little concerned. But she said she's game I can definitely hang back with her if she starts to falter a bit.

    More Update/thursday

    I just sent directions to all of you and then just saw the weather forecast for Sunday . I just got home from Phoenix and I am a little dazed from a 2 day trip to AZ...
    If it's raining or threatening at 9:00 AM, I think we will have to cancel. Please call my mobile phone # I PM'ed you or send me your email.

    Ride Canceled

    In case anyone didn't get an email, I am canceling the ride tomorrow. The weather is predicting rain all day.
    Please start talking about new dates that we can possibly get together. Anytime through the end of October....
