Excuse to buy a new dayglo bike ??

Not far off.

my running club more or less insists on hi-viz tabards on night runs. Grrrrr.

Do you run on the roads then? Those tabards are just horrible to run in, they don't fit properly and move a bit, which I don't like. Yuk, yuk and thrice yuk.

Only when we cross 'em!

I admit I run in the road when out on my own, on quiet lit residential streets marred by pavement parking, wheelie bins, and badly maintained pavement. The road itself is safer, as my two broken ribs can attest.

Ha! He just passed me in the factory a few minutes ago, I thought he was just giving me a friendly prod and a tickle.

I didn't know he was attempting GBH

So, when are you going to buy it?

on the bike a lot so can justify paying it for my safety, I wouldn't have bought it unless it was going to serve a purpose and as I am out every night on the bike to train for my lejog next year I think its worth the money I will get a fair bit of use from it.
