People’s Poncho Review - Bicycle 2 Work The People’s Poncho Review - Bicycle 2 Work

It has a hood with a little bill on it to keep your head and face protected from rain. It’s lightweight but does its job of keeping you dry. It’s crafted out of waterproof polyester that is durable and seam sealed. You won’t need to worry about water getting through. And they do say there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing. An old cliché, but true. There‘s no reason why we can’t cycle for work and pleasure, all year round, just because of the Gulf Stream.

More rain protection. The poncho covers your thighs, keeping (most of) your legs dry. If you opt for a longer one that covers your handlebars, your hands and arms will stay dry too (providing there’s a way of attaching it to you or the bike).

Rain Capes: Cleverhood vs People’s Poncho – Bromptoning Rain Capes: Cleverhood vs People’s Poncho – Bromptoning

When you think of a rain cape or poncho, you may be imagining a cheap plastic poncho that resembles a trash bag. The truth is capes made for biking are not only stylish but will do a great job of keeping you dry.If you’re fortunate to live in a part of the world that doesn’t get much rain than this could be the poncho for you. Out of this list of capes and ponchos this is the cheapest in price. It’s a one-size fits all. Each has a stylish pattern with interwoven reflective thread, creating a bright high-viz grid that will ensure you are seen in dark and wet conditions. Initially I hooked the straps onto my handlebars, but felt more confident riding when I hooked them onto my hands instead. Yeah, OK, you might look a bit like Quasimodo, but at least you’ll be a dry and warm Quasimodo. Besides, you don’t want to blend into the crowds when you have such a cool poncho to show off, do you? With this said, Cleverhood cleverly (haha) used interwoven reflective thread to make the cape reflective from passing headlights. pretty cool!
