On Reflection...

Reflective Clothing

Even though the light nights are lengthening, it is still dark when we are out running on Tuesday and Thursday nights and we need to remember that we must still wear light reflective clothing.    Some Members are still turning up  without their reflective clothes/bibs and are therefore putting themselves at risk.

I have been told that a few weeks ago, a young rider was knocked off her horse whilst walking alongside the road.   Because she did not have the correct reflective clothing on at the time, the Insurance Company are saying that they are not paying any compensation or damages.

If this is so, then it could also apply to you. Make sure you always have a reflective bib on, even if you have some thin reflective strips on your jacket.
