    Here's a pretty cheap one at Sierra Trading Post:


    Sugoi Athletic Jacket (For Women)
    Sugoi's wind- and water-resistant jacket lets you pedal to your limits even on the gloomiest of days. Vented underarms and breathable...
    Our Price: $34.95 Retail: $60.00 Savings: 41% #25036
    Sizes Available: S, M, L, XL

    And then there's:

    Castelli Carbon Donna Cycling Jacket (For Women) only $199, that's $150 off!!! Could someone please tell me how one justifies a $350 cycling jacket that isn't even waterproof???

    Thanks! I have found one too. I was looking for a really cheap one . Performance has one for 9.00. I don't ride in the rain. Scares me too much. so I wanted someting for this big trip I am taking ( San Juan huts)but didn't want to spend a ton of $ on something I might not use. I have a rain jacket from ll bean but it would be to heavy to pack for this trip. So I am opting for this one http://www.performancebike.com/shop/...e.cfm?SKU=6364 it's perfect and made for what I want. Thanks for keeping an eye out for me Nanci your the best!

    Can't beat that price! I like the rain, in the summer, on a paved trail. I don't like cold rain. Florida rain is mostly warm, though. If you have the right clothes, sometimes a huge downpour can be exciting. And I _love_ when you're MTBing, and get caught in a Florida downpour, and the trail turns into a river...(Lots of bike cleanup after, though.) I get scared on roads, though, in traffic, (good reason to have a little taillight) especially when it first starts, and the oil hasn't washed off the road yet...
