If you're a camper, and that includes those of us who camp at motorcycle rallies you have undoubtedly had the experience of tripping over a rope or tent stake in the dark.
If you're at a rally where the tents are closely grouped and where alcohol is being consumed, there's also a fair chance someone will blunder into your tent ropes in
the middle of the night. At best, it'll startle you out of a sound sleep. At worst, your tent will be crushed by a lumbering drunk.One of the guys in the BMW Riders of the Mid-South club recently posted to the club email list about GloRope. It's a product of Light Line in Seattle and their website features a wide variety of glow-in-the-dark rope, tent stakes, paper, tile, lamps, and on and on.
The rope and tent stakes strike me as a great idea. They would also make it easier to distinguish your tent from everyone else's - at least until this stuff becomes widely used.
