Showers Pass touring doesn't let any water in either. Simple Showers Pass gear is made for a similar climate from Northern California which is similar for Perth.RonK wrote:Showers Pass Elite2.1 does not let any water in.rusty842 wrote:Agree never really found a waterproof one.

awesome....did the camel farm loop a couple of weekends ago with the young fella, and soaked to the bone, a few war wounds and covered in mud, you couldn't wipe the smiles of our faces. Good fun and good memories.Cycleops70 wrote:Rode round Mundaring reservoir today. Was beautiful, then I got totally drenched through. Plenty thunder.

Yeah. Yesterday the westerley came in before 9:30, very early. Today I found it at Canning Bridge around 6am. A bit of a cool edge to it too.softy wrote:Check out that wind today.....
