Thank you all! And Susan, thanks to whoever I spoke to on the phone when I ordered the jacket :-) It fits perfectly and looks like just what I need.

The weather report keeps changing...less chance of thunder but not any more dry (starting at 80% and dropping to 65% chance of rain.

Don't think I'll be able to find the fenders in time.

But the encouragement is appreciated. We just don't often ride in the rain here because there are so many dry days. But if you're a reader of Bicycling Magazine- their recent article on riding in the rain featured photos from Tucson. Go figure!

Thanks again
