What's the monstrosity you have in the center on your rack, is that some time of reflector?
A FoxFire Commuter bike light.

I would rather be a live chicken than a dead turkey. It might be overkill but if someone ever does hit me and if I survive when it goes to court and they see pictures of my setup I or my family shouldn't have any problems winning my case. Helen Keller could see me. The law in Florida says for night time riding that a headlight and a taillight is required but additional lighting is suggested. I won't use this all the time just when I am going to work or coming home from work. That's why I have it quick release.
My workmates say that I look like a Christmas Tree going down the road without the bar. At least I get noticed..
If people run into the back of a City Bus this setup is no guarantee that I won't ever get hit, but it should help to keep from getting run over..Cheers
