    Every time I say to myself - "They can't possibly find another thing in
    which to put LED's", they find another thing in which to put LED's.

    Personally, I would like to see a helmet just lined with 'em - you'll look
    like one of those huge semi's all decked out in running lights.

    As the price of LED's drops, they will show up in more and more places.
    Kids sneaker with LED's that light up as they walk have been around for
    some time now.

    Not a bad idea. Maybe a billboard with a mesage scrolling across??? At
    interbike this guy was selling a lighting system for your wheel that could
    be programmed to spell out words as you rode along.

  3. Trek put these on some of their comfort and hybrid bikes this year.

    Too bad the bodies are still plastic, so there goes the longevity of the
    pedals.

    I put at pair of these on my winter bike: I ride 8 miles in the dark every
    night and soon it will be dark when I ride in the morning as well. I have
    noticed I get more street respect from passing as weel as approaching car
    drivers, so I think the jumping and flashing LED's improve my safety. But
    I am glad my identity is concealed by the dark, because I do feel rediculous
    with these fancy "toy pedals".
