I won't wear the neon when I finally make it out to ride with the local bike club I joined because I feel safer in a group. I didn't join last year because I was on a MTB with slicks & probable was too slow to keep up.
Why do you imagine that they would care?
Truth is that nobody cares what you ride or what you wear. As long as you can ride.
