Some years ago I was riding home on the highway in the afternoon when I was passed by a woman with safety orange and black panniers and a bright blinkie. As she got farther and farther away, the last thing I saw was the bright orange of her panniers, long after the blinkie faded out.
Also, I watched a video about motorcycle riding and the instructor said that patterns break up the rider's outline, effectively making it camouflage. It kind of makes sense.
