    Smile Non Razor Happiness ....

    The days are getting shorter.
    Rain comes down often and snow will not take long to arrive.
    The happiness when you receive your new coat cannot be described.

    Sorry, just had to shout this out.

    Thanks,
    Hoekie

    ps, this online shop was extremely fast and provides good aftersales help.

    I hate winter, its just starting to get fall here and I'm already ready for spring. I just got my new, old bike out of the shop, and it's been raining ever since.

    On that note, I'm shopping for a warm riding coat now.

    They have all styles .....
    Have a look at www.drizabone.com
    From polarjackets to riding coats, and not that expensive (compared to Europe at least).

    Fjallraven is quite good as well, but costs far more.

    Good luck and post what you got!

    I'm looking at this one, but with my skinny frame, I need to try it on before ordering.

    Unhappy

    For the times I was on that kind of bike I always wore a thick leather jacket ... really can't help you there.

    On fitting I know the problem, my torso is missing 6 inches so everything is too long (usually 8 inches on sleeves and length), although chestsize is right.

    The coat I bought is short (halfway upperleg), comes down to my knees though.

    Luck,
    Hoekie

    Default I love winter!

    I love winter! Love it, love it, love it! The colder and more snow, the better. Nuthin better than sitting in a bowstand or out in the marsh during a snow storm!
