Before you all tell me Blackbird riders don't wear hi vis that's fine but I need some. The company I used to get supplied by 'Delta Clothing' in Bedford have gone and I cannot find where.
I need to find another supplier who can get zip front bibs with bib and brace reflective bands. Made from ecotex or similar which is a rubberized waterproof
If they can do print for my company logo and telephone number that would be even better.

Any ideas????

Don't bother if its only for the bike - the Sh**heads in boxes can't see you even if you do have HiVis stuff on :bang: - I've given up trying to be seen, just decided to learn to avoid the eejits that pull out in front of me :bang: - or try to side swipe me!!!! :bang: Even with a yellow reflective motrway jacket and headlight and a PINK bike, the bastards still try and hit me!! :eek: Maybe it is deliberate!!!!:dunno:

Absolutely sensible then - I'm just having a rubbish day and being even more cynical than usual!!! s04pb0x6 You have to start them off right to give them a fighting chance!! I generally tell people they should try riding with one and let them find out for themselves. I was convinced HiVis would help people see me - unfortunately I have become far too cynical over time and no longer wear it unless its raining or cold, and thats just to keep me warm and dry!!!!!!! 8ree! too many near misses with jacket and headlight on - how do people 'Not See' you??? :bang: :bang:

If the web address doesn't work out, there is a company here that a voluntary group I'm with got some good kit from, and they got the name printed too. Can't remember the name, but can find out
