shellyj,

That's amazing and makes it well worth the cost! I would never have expected this jacket with that back to repel rain like that. Fortunately, I haven't had to deal with rain yet, but I wore it yesterday and it was probably mid-40's when we were loading up the bikes and low 50's while riding. I felt the cold on the front of my legs through the PI Sugar Knickers but I was nothing but warm underneath the Cannondale LE. I already love this jacket.

Thank you so much for the update and congratulations on a nice wet ride yesterday! 78 miles in rain with 48-50 degree temps makes me shudder!

P.S. Did the jacket come out of the washer nice, too?
