  1. For the past few mornings I've spotted quite a number of cyclists who are almost impossible to spot on the M19, heading from Melkbosstrand to the N7. They have no rear lights and are almost always wearing black. Then again at about 7:20 in the mornings at this time of year, everything looks black, because, as a driver, you're looking directly into the sun. We, as cyclists are always moaning about road safety, but it is also our responsibility to be seen. There were even a couple of "ninjas" who were riding 2 abreast in these gd awful visibility. Be safe out there!
  2. In browsing i came across this product released by Volvo Cars (link below) what do you guys think, this has got to help on our roads. http://www.volvocarslifepaint.com/ Hey anyone from Volvo S A let's hear when this might hit our shores.
  3. Just an observation I've made, there aren't too many people who cycle early morning or evenings wearing reflective jackets or other items of visibility other than their front and rear lights. Firstly, is there a reason for this? Also, given that the largest part of a cyclist on a bike is the actual cyclist, would it not make sense for the cyclist to be most visible? The reason I ask is I am fairly new to cycling and wanted to understand if items like the two jackets below with LED's are considered taboo? or not practical for some reason? or just not readily available? With Winter fast approaching and most of my cycling to occur during darker periods I am hoping to understand what options are available to me or recommended to ensure I remain safe on the road. Not sure if I'm alone here or if others share the same thoughts or interests in items like the below?
