Cecil and I have Glo-Gloves.  Green reflective on back with arrows, and an
orange triangle on the palm.  I love mine - I stick my arm out and cars let
me in (eventually) to turn left across Walker Rd.  Especially in the dark
and rain.  They can be ordered from Pedi-Green in Hillsboro, and are made
right in McMinnville.  They pull on over whatever gloves you happen to be
wearing.

Some riders use 2 sets of ankle bands. One for their ankles, one for their
wrists.

I also have a roll of reflective tape you can put on your wheels, crank
arms, forks, seat stays, helmet etc etc. Just ask me to provide you with
some before the start. I usually have it with me in the suburban...but you
gotta ask for me to remember.

Here is the long version of the requirements (from the RUSA rules for
riders):

 

During hours of darkness or other low-light conditions, all riders must wear
a reflective vest, sash, Sam Browne belt, or some other device that clearly
places reflective material on the front and back of the rider. During these
times all riders will also wear a reflective ankle band around each ankle.
(Due to their unusual seating position, recumbent riders may modify their
reflective torso devices to show better from front and rear.) Other
reflective devices on clothing, shoes, helmets, and machines are encouraged
for increased safety - but they are extra and may not take the place of the
minimum items listed above.

On the requirements page, it says "Reflective vest or sash and ankle bands
required".  Is this 

*{reflective vest} or {sash and ankle bands}

or 

*{reflective vest or sash} and {ankle bands}
