I'd become accustomed to wearing jackets purely for their practicality in keeping me safe, warm and dry, but I definitely haven't felt particularly good in them (they were always so bulky, inflexible and ahhh that velcro!), but after having a spin around Wensleydale in the Kalea today, that's all changed! It looks and feels great and along with the Richa Kodi 2 leggings I can honestly say that I've never been so comfortable on a bike. The design means that there's plenty of room to layer up underneath, which is good as it doesn't have a thick lining. As for most of the year, I'll be riding in warmer weather, this is a definite plus - it's easier to add a few more layers than suffer in the heat. It's also very light, but the quilting on the back, shoulders and elbows provide the extra protection where it's needed. Thanks to Daisy for the suggestion and to the whole team for their excellent customer service.
