... I bought a builders Hi-viz jacket for £25 and wore it over the top...
Do you not find that's a bit bulky all together? Or is it ok to ride in?

It looks big and imposing (which is no harm) but builders jackets are actually very light weight, more duvet then blanket, so the combination is probably weighs less then my old voyager. This is the sort of thing I am talking about... http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Baratec-Contractor-Hi-Vis-Bomber-Jacket-High-Viz-Coat-Yellow-Visibility-New-Mens-/130744267651?pt=UK_BOI_ProtectiveGear_RL&var=430088010739&hash=item1e70f73383

[edit]Don't forgot to cut the hood out or you wont be able to zip it up to your chin.
