Cycling all year round. We can only encourage it. But we would consider safety aspects as priority number 1. If you go out in the early mornings or late in the evening, wear reflective clothing. In short, make sure that you can be seen!
You have to think about the other road-users. At some point, we have all struggled to see cyclists in the dark, when we’re driving our cars. A heavy downpour can also make it much more difficult to see cyclists in bad weather.
The rule is: see and be see. Luckily, alongside bicycle lights, there is a great deal of choice when it comes to bicycle clothing, allowing you to stay safe on the road and making you visible to other road users.
More info and a few retail address for reflective bicycle clothing:
On a technical basis: The fabric is very reflective because it incorporates miniature glass beads or prisms. These reflect all of the light that they catch. Like the clothing worn by road-workers.
