You can find reflective vests at stores selling surveyor's equipment or construction gear.  Bike shops sell reflective strips that will velcro around the bottom of your riding pants, and often sell reflective tape you can put on your stirrups, saddle and helmet.  If you don't mind ordering from overseas (or have a tack store willing to do so), there are a number of products (I found the leg reflectors at a local tack store years ago) at  http://www.boett.com/produkt_lista_eng_netscape.html   .

And then to really be seen as you post along there are Stateline's Flasher tights (http://www.statelinetack.com/scripts/product.asp?style=EI3-652109)!
