I think about if people really see me at times at night..or if they even see my bike parked in a space during the evening. So, I decided to do something a little fun with refector tape..take a look..Lights OFF

Lights ON


I put these lightning bolts in 7 different places on my bike and 3 on my helmet. They are actually hard to see at all unless hit by light...nice to have a red bike.

Whoa! I love it!

More info about the reflective stuff! Is it clear or red? Come in that shape, or did you cut it? Vinyl cutter?

Its just red reflective tape from the auto store. I downloaded a few lightning bolt from the net and printed the ones I liked. Cut them out with an X-acto knife and traced the bolts to the backs of the reflector tape and cut those the same way. Took my time in front of the tv and cutting one night.
You can get next to any color though, I saw many at GI Joes sporting goods. I think thats just a Pacific Northwest store, not sure.

Aw, I was hoping it was clear.

Don't know how well I can match the yellow.

I'll check out the local shops though, Thanks!
