What mods are being done to your bikes to help promote your safety?
There's a lot of traffic in some areas, so we have to stay safe.
I notice how people in their cars will SEE you, then still pull right out in front of you because they just don't care that you are on a bicycle. It sure scares people when I chase them on my bicycle and catch up with them before the next red light or stop sign, and LET THEM KNOW what they did, LOL.
Also, sometimes they DON'T see you.
Here's my upcoming mods:
Bright-Blue Helmet
12V 4AH NiCD Battery made from power tool batteries
Ultra-Loud CAR Horn
12V 55W Halogen headlight, and another 55W for emergency rear light as well.
Three 3.6V LED flashlights (headlights)
3.6V Lithium-Ion backup battery
Switchbox on handlebars for switches for lights and horn, and built-in charger for the 3.6V Li-Ion.
12V and 3.6V red LED taillights
More LEDs for additional running lights, and may use colored LEDS for ground effects.
So now cars will see AND hear me, and if they cut me off, they will get horn-blasted with a light show!
