Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Returned my touring shorts. So package enhancing. Wow.

commuted in the my hooded rain jacket this morning

such nice.

I bought the black one in the sale from the shop (£120).
Still pricey but better than the £230

My girl calls them my 'peeny shorts'. I mostly wear Endura now, belt loops means my Fagh isn't weighing my bag down and a bit of padding is always welcome.

Just ordered some touring shorts on the basis of reviews here. Stoked. Hoping I can squeese into a 30...

lol. My touring shorts are a size up from most of my civilian clothes.

You need your touring shorts to be big enough to wear over bibs, but as they are elasticated, stretchy, this is not normally a problem. I love mine, but nobody has pointed out I have an enormous cock on display yet, which means my friends are being polite or ...hmmmn

Anyhow... has anyone got/tried a PT Softshell Jacket yet?

Very happy with my LS Gabba, just wondering if the Rapha might be a decent alternative?

Ask @Sumo about this little "issue".

still missing something, or do you think, that's it with the summer collection? Might follow something like the trade team jersey last year?

Was fine in the waist.

Why spend £200 to find out, especially when you already have something that you're happy with?

that's it with the summer collection?

probably not as it's still early feb in finland at least. surly more to come.

Golf club mentality?

money > sense

Apologies, I forgot about the one decent winter cycling jumper rule.

The Gabba is ready to wear again after a wipe so I'm not sure I'd ever feel the need for more than one.

You just don't ride enough in bad weather.

I do my fair share thanks, though not wearing more than one jacket at a time.

If the man has worked hard enough to earn the price of 2 jackets then fair play to him :) Why would that be a reason for the "working class hero" comments.

I'm sure two jackets isn't excessive.

I like having choices and have more than two, never mind more than one.

I have several jackets .... because I can :)

This is the Rapha thread after all where spending ludicrous amounts of money on things you don't need is pretty much mandatory.

I haven't had a new jacket for a while (well, two weeks) so I might pop to Paul Smith later for a browse... Or order a PT Softshell.

He can spend it all on ice cream for all I care, but I'd not call that sensible either.

It wasn't and that didn't happen. Maybe you have trouble recognising class :)
