    No, but I want an OSU safety flag to give visibility to the Buckeye Nation while I live in the south. I Googled and found none for sale, so thanks very much for the tip. I think I'll try it!

    Here is a link to a OSU (Ohio) car flag http://www.collegeflagsandbanners.com/osu_buckeyes_2014_national_champs_car_flag_80477_prd1.html

    If you don't like those, then find an image you like and goto Devil Woman Flags and have her make you one. I have three flags from her and I designed another for another trike rider. She is VERY easy to work with and her work is GREAT. The image is sewn (embroidered) on the fabric twice. The fabric is heavy duty because she makes flags for off road vehicles.

    How timely that I find this post tonight, I broke my Home made Flag pole this Afternoon.
    It is a Wooden 7/ 16 th dowel.... Or was..... but I strengthened it and made it more visable by half wrapping Reflective tape around it.
    Any way, I need to look for a fibreglass pole now and I love the idea of a bigger flag.... Love that Piranah looking fish flag.
    I have always had a Bike tail light , high up on my flag pole. My commute requires early ride through some quiet back streets. They are hilly and I need cars to see a flashing Red light as early as possible.

    Here the light is removed but see bracket just below Green Flag.

    sorry the high light is not in the picture but the Reflective tape is worthwhile. See also the rear tyre reflective strip / tail light / rear reflector / and vest on me.
    Thinking of getting those wheel lights too :)

    Here is a great place for buying flag pole replacement parts -- okay, okay, they are a tent pole replacement place but they sell excellent things that will make a perfect flag pole. Check them out:
