I'm thinking of getting a hi-vis vest printed up with "Child on board" or similar to wear when I have my daughter on the child seat. I don't care to ride on the road much with it but a little is inevitable.

Has anyone done something similar?

Like this?

Might as well just get some reflective hi vis tape and go crazy on the back of the child seat, do some chevrons pointing to the right and fix a couple of On One Phaart Bleep lights to it

No, but I like the idea. Of course if they don't see the 16st 6 footer will they see the writing?

Edit: Nealy, not on a weeride.

Yes like in your picture nealy because that is a vest, but that type of child seat is obvious whereas the Weeride with an akak sat behind is not as igm points out.

Gotcha, a toptube type. Thought weeride was lingo for the act of cycling with sprog in tow

Googled it and found custom jobbie for a fiver https://www.hivis.co.uk/custom-printed-hi-vis-vest.html

Managed to get it for £3.90 posted on ebay and it is here already so pretty handy. In retrospect I might have been more comfortable in something like a Ronhill running bib and get someone local to print it or get iron-ons, would be a bit dearer though.
