High Visibility Yellow/Green gear

[Cyclo Kitty]

Endura is a Scottish company, and they seem to know rain. It 's a truly repellant jacket (I used to hate orange)! I haven't found their rain pants yet but I'll need something for warmer weather. I've got PI AmFibs but they're a sauna above 45F and it rains a lot here all year round.

I've looked at the PI vests and haven't committed to one yet. DH likes them so I might try one for him--right now he rides at night in black, without enough lights. Some of the PI fabrics seemed pretty light, though--easily ripped in some of the places I know he rides. He's surprisingly style-concious on a bike.

FWIW, I use JandD reflective straps on both ankles, or the drive side trouser and then my left arm, as a turn signal. (They are also good for strapping down bikes on racks.) The panniers on my commuter are also JandD with fat reflective straps and I hope they help!

I've not paid enough attention to reflective summer training wear yet, which will be a different set of choices than winter commuting gear. I feel like I'm more-or-less OK with the commuting...but summer training will be a whole new thing, and pretty much has to be done at dusk/after sundown schedule-wise.

I have both of these - and they are as bright as they look
