a high viz (or plain bright yella) cycling jersey. Short sleeved. Bargain priced

Been looking around some of the links in the 'spot the bargins' thread, but nothing that suits my needs...

missus insists i get some bright colouring going on so i can be seen, despite the fact that my backpack would cover it.

Any suggestions??

TIA

    Decathlon (one at Thurrock) do a very lairy yellow for about £8. They also do some bright cotton Tshirts for about £5, but they may not cover your back fully, or may not wick well enough.

    Another vote for decathlon - I've got one of the £8 ones - though not the yellow. Wicks well and has a map pocket on the back.

    Thanks all, decathlon had a nice bright but non hiviz yellow, 8sovs can't go wrong

    And the Missus appreciates the tight fit

    Hi viz back pack cover more sensible?? That way, you can wear any jersey you like and still not allow the Missus to claim on the life insurance.
