I also have reflective rims on my new tyres.

The only bit that helps you to be noticed at night is Reflective material.<br /><br />Hi-Vis = Good for during the day<br />Reflective = Good for the night<br /><br />I am amazed at how many people do not know or cannot see the difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574000555619782461.post-68380473937974230342009-11-11T10:10:10.429+00:002009-11-11T10:10:10.429+00:00I've started wearing the Sam Browne on every r...I've started wearing the Sam Browne on every ride except those where I'm in my yellow jacket. <br /><br />I totally agree with you that it's not just for night time. Dusk is particularly murky and I always wear something noticable.Weeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978271476811808607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574000555619782461.post-29745369875560110122009-11-11T09:33:50.523+00:002009-11-11T09:33:50.523+00:00Forget feeling silly in hi-vis.

If it's warm I wear a vest that is yellow and orange and covered in reflective strips and if it's colder I have a jacket that is so bright it actually hurts to look at! I had a disagreement with a regular cyclist recently who insisted that hi-vis was only necessary at night. As a sometime driver I find the bright colours actually more important during the day - and especially at dusk. At night there are lights to attract a drivers attention but during the day a grey/black/blue/whatever jacket is easy to miss. Hi-vis rules!!Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06878795083881920595noreply@blogger.com
