The majority of the time I ride alone so I worry more about protecting myself from a cage driver from behind, than worrying about buddies behind me freaking at me tapping my brakes when dusting off a little speed for a corner. If it would bother any riding buddies, I suggest that they go ahead of me. Nobody at the rally complained that my flashing brake light was spooking them.

I also wear a gimmicky hi viz vest, and wear a decidedly uncool white helmet most of the time. Protecting myself is sort of a self imposed high priority.

Ferret, I can relate completely. I'm also sporting the super cool white helmet and high viz vest. I'm going to look for the posts on your flashing bulb. Since I also ride alone most of the time, I'm also unconcerned about bothering anyone who is behind me. If someone is annoyed with the flashing, then they've seen that I'm slowing, which is my primary concern.
Gearbrake also makes a flashing module. I'm going to do some more research. If I end up ordering one, I'll put up a post with the details.
