Windbreaker with Hood Suggestion?
I used a rain jacket over fleece for a short ride in cold weather
recently and I was amazed at how the rain jacket blocked the wind. However the rain jacket is kind of big and flaps around. I am looking for something streamlined with a hood that can be easily layered underneath. I also want it to be of good quality and look good. Does anyone know of anything? |

When I was looking for a rainproof jacket, I was told that hoods impair your hearing. So, I'd be aware that might be a potential problem, riding in traffic. Pat in TX : |

Pat in TX : Using that logic, so would a hat, skull cap, earband, or Earbags. Those of us riding in colder climates cover our ears, with a minimum of hearing loss. For the OP: not a problem. So Pat, according to Maggie, you are a female, is that correct? Life is Good! Jeff |

I'm not really sure if I understand this thread.
When I have dinner, I put on my dinner jacket. When I smoke, I put on my smoking jacket. When I want to pretend I'm not a bike bum, I put on my straight jacket. But what am I supposed to do when I put on my windbreaker? Kindly explain. Thank you. |

Jeff That sounds like a good column....."According to Maggie".......Think anyone in their right mind would read it? I'll write about my bicycle adventures and throw in a little Fashion and Travel tips. It would be a great venue to go on and on and on and on and on about my life. And we all know how some people love to hear about my life. ;-) To stay on topic....I never wear a hat when I ride. It gives me hat hair. If Pat is not a woman, I will be much surprised. ;-) Maggie |
