I simply dont think a driver will see me or not see me based on a jersey color during day rides as I am not a small object.

I do have an orange Garneau vest that is thin and I really like for the shoulder seasons. Its not tacky in color but is noticable, so maybe having that will keep the hi-viz crazies from attacking.

Recently changed from a gray helmet to a white one. I guess thats possibly more visible?


A simple blinky light will make me more noticable from a few blocks away than any awful HiC yellow colored jersey.
