Is there such a thing as?

It will also show the world that you are soaked in oily dirty shitty water off the road.

It's not a good look, especialy in the bum-crack area.

If only someone would invent two semi-circular pieces of plastic/steel with one attachement point for the brake caliper bolt and another with thick wire stays which go to a braze-on on the fork which I could fit to my bike to keep shitty water from the wheels splashing up over my clothes.

I wonder what you could call this invention....

Combine these with some Toetectors and you will never be cut up again

Unfortunately there are (too) many motorists who will cut up cyclists even if they do see them so daft trousers ain't gonna help much. But like I said earlier, good lights make way more difference to being seen than yellow trousers.

It does surprise me just how many cyclists I see around at the moment in fading light wearing a magic jacket, but with no lights.

I was actually thinking of in the bleak winter and during the day. felt that the lemon/yellow or pink would do two jobs; keep me warmer and help eejits see me in daylight hours.

Lights on during the day is the answer.

Not all of us want to ride a tweedy audax bike with full guards.

Some of us even ride - shock horror - off road.

Thinking this is probably the answer. Mostly I'm on road with an occasional canal-path thrown in so stay pretty clean. As I said before it is about visibility in daylight hours. Seems as if lights on is the answer and not HV clothing.
