I'm also happy with a reflective jacket designed for workers that I recently
purchased at Farm and Fleet. It seems very well made. F&F offers warmer
versions than the one I purchased, which is only a cotton-lined shell - a size
larger than I normally wear, to fit over my other layers. For being so
lightweight, though, it adds a surprising degree of welcome warmth.
This link shows the same jacket, priced at $38. At F&F, it's $25.

Subject: Re: [Bikies] How was your commute today?
I have winter studded tires front and back and feel a lot safer (it's safer to
ride than walk on ice) which I keep on a dedicated winter bike with good
brakes. It's still difficult for me to plough through more than 1 1/2 inches of
snow since I'm not a strong rider, but ice is fine. For evening/night
visibility, I recently treated myself to a highly reflective workers' winter
jacket from Farm and Fleet that wasn't nearly as expensive as "biking" gear.
Cars steer clear from me now, much better.
