Hi-Vis or Not

[Stu]

Kate - What size should I put you down for then?

LOL :P

Let me think about it

So after all this to-ing and fro-ing, I just want to check that we are still getting the jackets?

When is the deadline for orders Stu?

[Stu]

I've ordered them already, but they are being despatched tomorrow so could probably still change the order - if Kate ever makes up her mind
Seriously I've ordered a couple extra if peeps want to change their size / upgrade etc. and will sell them off here or on eBay.

Anyway, Yours is a large one Mr K!

Legend - Did you get my PM about upgrading to a new one? If not, doesn't matter- I'll go used. [EDIT]

Let me know what to send and where to send it to. Paypal, check, cash, gold bullion etc.

Regretfully I fear I would be stoned quite unceremoniously by my riding buddies if I ever turned up in a Hi Viz anything!

Lol, I'm a definite no if that helps. If I had one I would just hang it next to the hi-vis thing I've already got.

Was it or did those two end up

quick synopsis - heated debate over a very controversial opinions then someone got barred for life. Ths thread started very much like this with toys being thrown then insults and then boom! all out of proportion it went.

Just fed up seeing things being take out of context

There is one important aspect you are missing. May years ago a mate and I were travelling through Slough in a car late at night. We just came over a hump bridge, suddenly the headlights caught a reflective jacket in the road. My mate who was driving was looking in his rear view mirror and hadn't seen it as soon as me. I shouted stop, luckily we were not going too fast. It turned out a biker had come off and was lying in the middle of the road with his bike on the verge, unseen at first. It turns out he was so drunk he had passed out while riding.

Now I am not saying you would ever ride while drunk, but there are numerous reasons why you might end up in the middle of the road, both medical and mechanical. A Hi-Vis jacket could mean the difference bewteen life and death.
