Wow. So much great advice on all these posts. Surprised by how many riders are openly eschewing hi-viz clothing, but hey, to each his own. Thought since I started this thread I would let everyone know what I decided to to go with.

First, a big shout out to tsl for turning me on to AlertShirt.com. Found some real bargains. I grabbed a few shirts (http://alertshirt.com/potmanco.html) and a great vest (http://alertshirt.com/brsave.html) that I will be able to throw over whatever jacket I will be wearing during these upcoming cooler months.

I also decided to add a front blinking head light and went with the suggestion of gregjones and a few others and picked up a CatEye (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1). A lot of people suggested the DiNotte lights, and they look incredible, but they are just too far outside my budget

Finally I added these very cool reflective stickers from fiks:reflective. (http://www.ridewithfiks.com/collecti...e-sticker-pack) More effective at night, but they really look cool. Check out the wheel stripes they sell. If only they made them for 27" wheels!

So now, with a blinking red rear and white front lights and my hi-viz clothes, I really do feel like I have a more visible presence on the road. Might just be in my mind, but this stuff has given me a real confidence boost I needed after my accident. Thanks to everyone for the input.
