I started  getting a little concerned about how visible I was to drivers the other week, especially as I keep hearing stories about cyclists being hit by cars. I decided I needed some fluorescent kit. So I ordered a Montane Featherlite Velo jacket for a start. This is a truly excellent shell to have with you – it packs down into a tennis ball size bag and yet is comfortable, water resistant and highly fluorescent. Trouble is that I would only be wearing this if it was colder or wetter weather. The standard issue Shipham top that I wear is orange but its still not eye catching enough. I had a search around and came up with a high viz vest type thing make my Brookes. Its light as a feather and wont make any difference to your temperatures, but it has fluorescent netting and large reflective panels. Just the job. So I am now pretty much kitted out. I’m tempted to go even further with some fluorescent reflective strips on the seat stays…
