I like to increase the chance that I will be seen (bigger target?) so I wear a yellow vest with reflective stripes and ride with my front and rear lights blinking even during the day. I keep my eyes open and I don't trust anybody either (drivers or pedestrians). I believe that people give crazy people a wider berth so I play up that side of it. It's a small town and they know me here so I don't have to work too hard to convince them about that - jd
I like that! I have allowed myself to wobble a little to give the impression that I'm not that stable so they give me a wider berth, but I LOVE the "crazy" idea! I too use lights day and night, and I figure a little bit of cash spent on batteries is money well spent to keep me safe, but I hope to soon have all my lights powered by my main pack.
