OK, for once, a serious question. The ultra long range forecast for California shows a couple of days of rain during the week I will be there. It has never rained out there on 6 previous visits so I am kind of bummed but maybe the forecast will change. Anyway, what rain jacket has worked for you? Temps will be in the low 60's on the day(s) it rains so considering the temperature and liklehood for an all day rain, what works for you...plastic trash bag with head cut-out...please no....what else can I use? Thanks in advance for your good recommendation and please no biting comments, just good opinions please.
Cyclingly Yours, Mark

Mark I have no opinion but, I do remember Bicycling magazine testing 3 or 4 raincoats mid to late last year. If I remember it was one of Hincapies designs they gave the nod to. Maybe the info is still on their site somewhere.

Hahaha Janet! Usually my Goretex jacket keeps me pretty dry but I think washing it over the years has not helped as I was soaked on the 300K. I would look for a jacket with pit zips or vents on the sides. I think Roy got one from Performance so you might want to email him. Since all I see is his back on the tandem, I thought it kept him pretty dry. He also had rain pants from the same place.
