Re: [Ebbc-Talk] rear red bike light: blinking or steady?

I have heard that flashing lights make it harder to detect where the light
is located (e.g. how far away it is, or how quickly you're approaching it).

I split the difference: steady lights on the bike, flashing lights on the
helmet, and some yellow Reflexite tape as well.
