Got these and hopefully in addition to my mega-blinky rear light they will keep me from getting run over. Ran across this company (Ridge Supply) at the Philly Bike Expo and to say their socks are bright is an understatement. Quality seems good as well. My family can't believe I would wear these but "just tryin' to stay alive". :)

I wondered what was so bright when I looked south

And I'm pretty sure that when I'm spinning they are going to be fairly easy to spot. Or aim for...one or the other.

Please keep us posted if you sense cars begin to give you a bit more room out on the road.

What I HAVE noticed is oncoming cyclists with neon socks in various colors. The Hi-Viz Neon when moving up and down seems especially noticeable.

Did you get the back story on that company? Being seen is a good thing ...

Thanks, I did. Turning lemons into lemonade.
