<\/a><\/p>\nThe Trek Troopers will be clad in high-visibility Trek-Cycle Challenge jerseys, bibs and helmets and will have front and rear daytime running lights making them more visible in the group whilst creating exposure of Trek\u2019s ABC\u2019s of cycling safety<\/a>, which encourages riders to be seen and be safer on the roads.<\/p>\n <\/a> Trek\u2019s research shows that cyclists drastically overestimate the distance at which they are detectable by motorists. Unless we\u2019re actively doing something to increase our detectability, we may not be seen at all. And that\u2019s an alarming reality.<\/p>\n The ABC of Awareness <\/a> \u2013 Always on, Biomotion and Contrast \u2013 are presented in a good, better, best hierarchy. There are a lot of measures we can take to increase our visibility on the road, but research has shown that using daytime running lights is the single most effective way to stand out to motor vehicles. If you only do one thing, do this.<\/p>\n <\/a> The more of the ABC\u2019s you follow on every ride, the more you\u2019ll stand out. Find your day-time running lights at any Bontrager stockist and with the Bontrager guarantee if you don\u2019t love them, we will take it back within 30 days \u2013 it\u2019s that simple.
