The lastest burrito wrap, not as thick and tight as the original -- less canvas- and more cloth-like, makes an admirable substitute for a piece of newspaper. I will add a neck strap and perhaps trim and hem mine, but it works as is if your outer jersey is tight fitting enough. Folds up nice and small, too. At 40F, its often just enough, as an intermediary wind shield, to make a shirtweight merino underlayer and the BF hoodie outer warm enough.
Wax cotton, wool-lined cod piece -- oh, the possibilities! Like a Brueghel peasant. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_fZ7TvbeRp2A/SoIz4v0OafI/AAAAAAAADW0/p0mdA3C29fY/s800/wedding%20dance%20detail2.jpg On Sat, Mar 6, 2010 at 9:58 AM, Earl Grey <earlg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Okay, > > this is actually a (semi-)serious entry: a windbreaker that consists > only of the front torso section of a "typical" windbreaker, with loops > to go around the neck, the arms, and the waist, to hold it in place. > Sorta an upscale manufactured version of the old bike racer's trick of > sliding a newspaper under his jersey front in cold weather... > > Gernot > > On Mar 6, 1:54 pm, Tim McNamara <tim...@bitstream.net> wrote: > > A stiff waxed dickie codpiece to go in your Banana Bag? > > > > What mailing list did I stumble into? > > > > On Mar 5, 2010, at 6:21 PM, Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery wrote: > > > > > > > > > I'd spring for an all-in-one dickie/codpiece combo.
