Nice rigs!

I focus on large patches of surface area - e.g. my body. I bought a couple of reflecto-vests with white SOLAS tape, cut them up and used velcro to make into leggings so that the back of each leg has a huge vertical reflecto-stripe. Using the highly scientific "have the wife follow me in the car" test, she said they are by far the most visible part of me (and not the 2 blinkies and all the reflective stuff on the bike).

Sample vests:

Next up in my mad scientist plans: reflecto-stripes front and back, arms, lower back, chest, legs.
