I recently bought two Pingos on sale but confess that I haven't worn either for cycling yet because they still look too new and pristine, LOL! The idea of taking a tumble or getting serious dirt on either one is unbearable! I love the shape/style of the Pingo, but the fabric is a little stiff---something that I guess either wearing or cleaning would probably help to soften up?

If anyone is looking for the Pingo at a pretty decent sale price, try Rock Creek Outfitters: http://www.rockcreek.com/products/listing/item3664.asp I got my red-orange one there......

I just ordered the Breakway jacket from Sierra Trading Post last week when it was on sale for a ridiculously low price.

When it's hovering in the 35 to 45 degree range, I wear one light wool base layer, one slightly heavier wool mid-layer and then top it with a Gore windstopper jacket. Most of my base layers are 1/4 or 1/2 zip tops so I can adjust as I warm up or cool down. When it's 45 to high 50s, I drop the mid-layer.
