Ah this ol chestnut, most of my riding is on country lanes where most of the backdrop is trees,bushes, foliage Ect, a very random and complicated background, just right for a small profile to blend in to, so a hi-viz is ideal for making me standout, whilst the headlight will hopefully make the Smidsy's see me when they are pulling out of side turnings whilst on the phone, eating a sandwich, moaning at the kids and lighting up their cigi's, one point I would like an opinion on is whether yellow or red hi-viz is the best?

4000 decibels of bloody foghorn might be useful.



If nothing else, it would make those in their own little world jump somewhat!



there actually is an orange/yellow one, but not sure if this is better or worse?

Hello AA MANIAC-------most vehicles of ANY sort usually pass me !!.......I had a "Traffic Light Grand Prix" start the other day with one of those Electric Invalid Buggys'....fluffed my 1st gear selection ( so I was still in Neutral) and he got away before me !! LIFE IN THE FAST LANE indeed !!..................I think that snail was going in the DOWNWARDS direction ie}----- trying to get off. Just imagine inside that shell home of his, all the books etc. have fallen off the shelves due to the vibrations !!..SCALY, maybe a BRIGHT PINK jacket would be eye-catching ??... Certainly keep you "In-touch" with your feminine side, that's for sure.......Imagine all those "Supportive" comments from your alleged "mates" as you boldly ride-up on an Enfield to your local "Ace Cafe" equivalent ??
