Re: RC: Reflective clothing

["Olivia Greene" <greene_olivia@hotmail.com>]

   Last I knew, State Line Tack carried an assortment of reflective vests, 
browbands, anklets, etc.  Another suggestion: get some of the 
adhesive-backed reflective tape or stickers they usually carry in sporting 
goods stores and stick them onto your helmet.
   I've also seen some riders with those flickering red lights bicyclists 
use fastened to the rear of their helmets.  I used to fasten them to the 
back of my road cart for use if I was caught returning home at dusk from a 
trail drive.  With the combination of the flickering lights and all the 
reflective gear (I'd even found reflective rein covers from some carriage 
driving vendor) people told me I was strange-looking enough for them to slow 
down just to take a good look!
