A firend of mine, who has been cycling for quite some time made an observation about my bikes the other day.

Without giving it any thought, I have left the reflectors in the spokes of both my and my wife's hybrid as well as my road bike.

My friend tells me that this is tacky and reflects on my amateur status as a cyclist. As a side, he also disdains my cycling jerseys and prefers T-shirts. He says it is a matter of correct style.

I'd appreciate some comments on the reflectors please. It is highly unlikely that I will remove them based on any consensus I might see here. Yet I'd like to hear comments on the issue.
