Why are the colors of many cool weather cycling jerseys and jackets so "dark"?
The days are shorter and there is less light (longer shadows, etc.) so dark clothes are harder to see.
Being highly visible is important in every season. Don't the cycling clothing manufacturers ride bikes?
Summer jerseys are VERY bright and colorful. Don't they think about safety in the fall and winter?
