To all you cyclists out there, get yourself a flashing blue it may save you from mad car drivers[ read the 3 letters from the uk's cycling weekly

Blue is the colour

A letter by Mr Peter Seymour of Dublin published in cycling weekly 14/1/10

Further to the brilliant[ in every sense of the word] letters on November 5 and December 17 issues , I too have started commuting and training in the winter lights with a blue flash light next to my helmet. The flashing blue light affords vulnerable cyclists the extra ‘force-field’ of protection against complacent motorists, desensitised to the warning light effect of a rear red light as a signal to e… Continue

Seen the Light



I’VE just finished reading your article in the 22/10 issue about winter and commuting, and couldn’t help but notice how ineffectual the rear lights were on the picture featured and how they blended and disappeared in the town traffic.

I have managed to solve this problem, however, what I am abou… Continue

Hi Robbie, taking me a while to get used to how this site works. Also hard to find time to keep up with everything! Thanks for the shout though,

Well, I did 12.5 mi this week, on my trainer... :/ Sick kids and foul wet weather kept me indoors. My commute is 45 miles, I live north of San Francisco, so I usually take the bus. When the days are long I have a great commute (home). There isn't 10mi of flat road around here, so time trialing isn't something we get to do around here. Levi Leipheimer lives a few miles away in Santa Rosa California, so you may know what hills I'm talking about.

You sound pretty regular, on the bike anyway, GOOD JOB! I'm jealous!

just come in from slogging the skins up the piste for a few hours! i think the blue light has merit as the "sleepy Motorist" will ignore red as part of the scenery!

These are the lights my co-worker uses on his commute. I mentioned them when answering your question in the VeloReviews Podcast, to be aired shortly:
