Heroes of my gear: My new, selfmade recumbent raincoat. I still can't believe that I made it myself. Well, it had been a really hard week of work, but it became great. Covered, asymetric zipper on the side, for no water would seep onto my stomach. Covered zippers under the arms for ventilation even in heavy rain. Extra long sleeves with thumb straps, for I could wear the sleeves over my hands. Okay, a more beautiful color would have been good... sadly this had been the only color, Gore-Text Paclite Shell was available for end customers. At all it was worth delaying the tour for two days, to finish this coat.
