Just been to the zoo and saw some monkeys with big red things on their backsides not sure if they were lights, flashing or otherwise but highly visible.

Martin - if you want something for your Isaac, I've used a couple of the small Electron Backupz on the seat stays on my Isaac - otherwise it's difficult to find anything to fit on the aero seatpost.

How about the smaller Knog, or Cateye (disc like with elastic band).

It almost essential for me if i ride slower i will need to get Sam a tent.

If you have a modern fizik saddle - the badge comes out and a light fits in its place - Tim sells them and they look very neat (aero too!)

Cycling Time Trials are now asking time trial organisers to put the following wording on the start sheets.

'It is recommended that a working rear light, either flashing or constant, is fitted to the machine in a position visible to following road users and is active whilst the machine is in use'

I've seen some pretty good flashing ones, i don't think a constant one will be much good unless it's 20 Megawatts.

Anyone know what is the best flashing light? I think the best one I've seen is a 'Smart' light but I don't know what model.

Could be the thin end of the wedge, how long before we have to wear dayglow orange and have a car driving in front with it's hazard warning lights on?

Don't let it stop you riding though.
