Great point and terrific link! I can finally show people what I see and maybe a few riders will change from “safety” red and pink to more visible colors. The linked web site gives a pretty good idea of what I see — the simulated view looks very much like the originals in almost all cases. Now if we could just get the map makers to take notice

I am colorblind and I can attest that what you say Quinn is the most effective method of catching my attention anyway. The flashier you are, the more likely you are to be noticed. Yellow is probably the best single color that you can wear and you can’t go wrong with reflectors or flashing LEDs.
