Thanks again for all the responses; the volume indicates that more than I
think about this. I am pleased that my fretting is shared.

C'mon, saddlebag makers have been putting loops on flaps for decades; isn't
there a way to make these work?

I've tried clipping to the saddlebag flap, with much the same results as
with the blinkie loop; at least, no guarantees of proper orientation. No
fenders, no helmet, no rack braze ons, so that to use this last method only
the dropout fender brazeons are available, which I hesitate to use because
lights mounted there can be easily knocked about. Must look again.

Perhaps a bracket to position the light inboard of the dropout?

Meanwhile, I may resort to the 2AA MiniMaglite with red LED twofishblocked
under the left chainstay. At least it will share batteries with the
Lightman strobe. And I must experiment with a blnkie clipped to a Sam
Browne or rear reflective triangle belt. I agree, a lot of reflective
material on the back is best.

Or, better yet: replace the VO saddle rail bag loops with another
home-made, rail clamp bracket holding a tube to attach the saddlebag straps
to. This tube provides a place to clamp a blinkie using a seatstay-sized
clamp.
