MY boss who is color blind passed me on the way to work the other morning. He said my reflective road vest from Lowes for $9 made me stand out more than my bright LED taillight that was flashing.
Yeah I think it looks dorky And I feel it is better to be alive dork then a flat x cyclist. Riding in the dark with people waking up, or still asleep while driving to work scares me. But I wouldn't change riding in the dark, I'll just do everything I can so that drivers see me.
