I wondered if anyone has run across gloves that have lights along the pinkie finger? I saw someone at an evening ride wearing them, but didn't get a chance to ask if they'd purchased them or if they were home-made. Pretty cool idea...

Thanks--

I've seen similar apparel for motorcyclists, which would also work for cyclists. There are even fancy lights for jackets that can link to your turn signaling system and blink a light on your left or right shoulder depending on which way you're going.

Many bike commuters use glo-gloves over their cycling gloves to increase the visibility of their hand signals at night. They are widely available on the net and at industrial and traffic safety supply stores. repasting original link (http://secure.cartsvr.net/catalogs/catalog.asp?prodid=2178323)

here is another (http://www.lacp.org/Sponsors-Affiliates/GloGloves.html) Sorry the 1st didn't work for you. I suppose I should add that only police are supposed to use the red octagon palm patch, the rest of us can have the yellow/green triangle repeated on the palm.
