Safety Triangle
I've been looking and looking for those fabric safety triangles that hang from your seat. I've searched all my local bike shops and online without any luck. Maybe they're called something else? Any help in locating one would be appreciated!

10wheels,
What is that bike? Looks C&V to me...also looks like something I would be caught riding...complete with Carradice bags, fenders, mudflaps, etc.

I picked one up at REI, my kids think I look even dorkier. My blinkly is mounted next to it, when it flashes it reflects off the triangle, lights up real nice

I want to get some yellow reflective tape to make the slow moving vehicle triangles on the back of my bucket panniers. Also would make a good contrast to the large field of reflective red that already exists.

I used to have a fabric safety triangle similar to the ones shown in the photos earlier on this thread. I recently changed to an official slow-moving vehicle sign which is much more noticeable:

Works great for me but admittedly it's not for everyone....
