    Vaguely on topic, has anyone got the Rapha+PS rain jacket? Getting the urge to splurge on something that is less TdF and more urbane.

    I've got the normal waterproof and it's excellent. the PS version looks to be warmer and has a funny coloured prolapse protector...

    are you planning on wearing it a lot of just when it rains?

    Thanks; I was planning on wearing it for short commute and off the bike as a general coat. Not convinced about the prolapse bum flap on either need (mudguards) or style grounds.
    I have an as-yet-unused pocket rocket in the saddlebag for emergencies.

    if you're going to spank that kind of cash get the softshell, it's a really great top and fairly water proof as well. Absolutely love mine

    That's nice, but another 60% and looks a little too "rider" for off-bike wear. If im going to pay full retail, I miight see what changes the AW11 range brings.

    The brogue holes tie in with the perforations nicely.

    Jesus wept. Where to start with these. Monkstrap brogues FFS?!

    No, no and no.
