I know I am telling you guys how to suck eggs, so put this down to a "reminder".

 

My son's GF just turned up here shaken and stirred, having had a near-hit by a truck who didn't see her. I don't know whey they call it a "near-miss", surly that is a hit?

 

Seems she was wearing a black full-face helmet, dark green jacket and camo pants, oh and the rear light was dirty.

 

Now "this is pretty close to the ideal stealth-ware" I explained "and you have just ridden 40km through the countryside on an overcast afternoon....and only one car didn't see you?".

 

Tomorrow we are going to Do-Home and get her a Hi-vis over-jacket just 55baht.

 

Let this chap explain:- 

 

Make sure it has the highly reflective patches on it that intensify when a headlight shines on them.
