Salmon Sperm & Bicycles – Together at Last
If you’re lucky, you, too, can ride around safely after dark thanks to millions of salmon sperm.Recent research has shown that a thin layer of DNA from salmon sperm has such fine optical qualities that it increases the strength and effectiveness of light diodes by holding onto the electrons longer than synthetic materials.
The two light diodes on top show conventional materials holding onto electrons. The two bottom ones show the qualities of salmon sperm.

I had to check the calender and make sure this wasn’t April 1st…
I think I’d rather crawl home from the bar blitzed holding a candle in front of my handlebars (and yeah, I know it wouldn’t work for shit) than have fish baby batter light my way.
But that’s just me.

“Hey, let’s smear some salmon jizz on my glasses to see if it helps!”
“O.k., great idea!”
