I bought a simple Pearl Izumi windbreaker, in that same "screaming yellow" color, for about $60. For warm weather cycling, I also still have a few bright orange T-shirts from the First [and last] Great Annual Pumpkin Run my wife's former ballet teacher once sponsored. (I bought 20 leftover shirts for $1 apiece about 20 years ago.) My favorite cycling top is the bright orange T-shirt one of my friends had made for an electronics project on which we worked. Since we were developing image processing technology for high-speed cameras used in automobile crash testing, it has pictures of two crash test dummies on the front and "Danger -- Crash Test Engineers" emblazoned on the back. I also enjoy wearing it to the annual San Diego Auto Show.
