> And ditch the Lycra.

Lycra's functional: it says "here's someone who doesn't want to blend into the background". Vastly better than das blinkenlights some cyclists insist on using during the day, which have the "look at me! look at me!" nature; they don't so much attract attention as insist on monopolising it. I get distracted by them, even as a pedestrian. End of rant.
