    Thanks, those all sound like good tips! I didn't even know that you could get convertible jackets like the flip flop or vagabond, d'oh! - that might be exactly the kind of thing I need, thanks! I've also contacted illuminite about ordering from the UK - that stuff looks amazing, so I think I'll definitely be looking for some gear from them

    Thanks everyone, Lynne.

    p.s. Zen, don't even get me started on "pants", lol!

    woohoo, I had to post this for you, given the discussion here :

    Rapha Gilet

    Totally not what you are looking for, but Rapha stuff makes me drool -- I love the whole aesthetic, and everything looks as if it is detailed beautifully also.

    I have last year's version of this vest - quite a bit uglier than the Rapha gilet, but the hi-vis color is very bright and it's reasonably reflective. It's also quite breathable, while still keeping off the wind.

    Liza, thanks for the link to Ralpha. The apparel looks great and the guys are not so bad on the eyes either.
