Mimitabby,
I hope you enjoy the jacket. I've been riding in the Showers Pass jacket for the past few weeks and I much prefer it over my Gore Jacket. The eVent fabric breathes better and with the pit zips, mid-back venting, and the ability to loosen up the cuffs, I find the ventilation to be excellent.
I also appreciate the reflectivity.

Alas, none of those things fit me..... I've even tried on the Burley Rock Point jacket and found it wanting. I guess I'm going to have to get serious about using this here traffic cone orange WPB to make myself something. I'm gonna whine about having to use seam sealant though, the stuff's a pain in the butt....

Not yet. Our building is a little behind schedule (our windows are late, and without windows, the electrician can't run copper and the drywall guy can't hang drywall, etc...). Sigh.
We're currently scheduled to move in the 3rd week of March.
We will have a "will call" for local customers. You'll be able to place your order online and pick it up the next day.
Looking forward to meeting you!

I *want* that Showers Pass jacket and the hood.
However, I don't *need* it.
(but I put it in my TE cart, for just in case)

I ordered Showers Elite jacket from TE and found the large too big and the medium perfect except for the snug raglan sleeves. Very well made made jacket with lots of great features. I'm still thinking about settling for the sloppy large size.

When I ordered mine, I ordered the small and the medium, returned the small. Hind sight is 20/20. Now I wish I had kept the small.
Do not get me worng, I love the medium, but it is a tad looser than I wold prefer.
