Day 015 - Rain jackets

Rest day        Training via ActiveMail

IT'S A REST DAY: Rain jackets are important when it's pouring. You'll still get wet but the jacket helps hold in body heat. The best jackets are made of a water-repellent but breathable material and are brightly-colored for better visibility. Also, look for a long tail that hangs down over your bottom so water thrown up from the rear wheel won't soak your shorts. If you're touring or out in the rain for extended periods, Burley makes a great waterproof jacket with armpit and chest zips for ventilation. And if you expect several consecutive rainy days, fenders might be a good idea to keep the dirt thrown up by your wheel from landing on you.
