Shiny (and everyone else...),

You could always join me in the 'Clown Crew', and wear a road-worker's florescent vest (high quality units run around $18) -- they all have several 2"(?) reflective stripes running vertically, and horizontally on them, and they can be worn over any coat, or shirt, as they have 4XL-5XL's available.  Seriously, with one of these on, drivers of all types can hardly miss seeing you...  It's a small price to pay for your increased safety.  When riding in the rain's very poor visibility conditions, they really make an incredible difference.  Cheers!


PS:
They are becoming more common, in my town of 100k+ people.  Not only are there more riders, this Summer, but more of them are in the 'Clown Crew', even some HD riders have joined our ranks!
