Bike Commuting

I had an old waxed cotton bike poncho made by some hippies in Oregon or something that was great, but wore out and they're shut down their business. I bought a Cleverhood.

Gotta say, it's adequate, but not particularly good. The hand loops are crude and awkward. Inexplicably it's made out of breathable fabric, which is pointless in a poncho, as a core poncho upside is plentiful airflow underneath, plus you only wear it when it's actively raining at which point any breathable fabric ceases breathing. My shoulders get damp where they touch the cloth, and that didn't happen with my fully waterproof waxed cotton one.

I'm tempted to clean, fix, and rewax my old poncho as it did a better job, albeit it was heavier and more bulky.
