"(My wife says:) This jacket is super lightweight and rolls up to fit in my jersey pocket when not needed.
The styling is smart and fitted and I like that the material is see-through. The arm length is great as I'm on the tall side (175cm) and this can quite often be a problem for me.
The collar is comfortable as it's lined in soft-touch material. The only thing against it is the feel of the inner surface which has a rubbery texture and initially feels strange on bare skin. (You get used to it, though.)
I bought a size 16 when I'm normally a 12/14 but this does allow for a layer or 2 underneath.
All in all, VERY happy with this purchase."

Does this Jacket have any back pockets?
ladies Clear Race Jacket - pls advise if this jacket has any pockets?
Thank you

Thank you

No,unfortunately, this jacket doesn't have any pockets at all. I guess that is to ensure the integrity of the waterproofing.

Shimano XC60 Mountain Bike Shoes 2013
Lightweight Mountain bike shoes for high milage cross country rides and races. The XC60 has an XC specific feature set that provides durability, efficiency and comfort at a low weight for outstanding performance on the trails.
With regard to shoe sizing, do you need to purchase one size up like other shimno )shoes (which tend to on the small side of the sizing char
I bought a size up on normal for comfort. As they have the velcro straps across the top of the foot and the adjustable clip your foot doesn't slip in the shoe but the extra length allows some room for your foot to swell a little without discomfort in the warmer weather.

Great value touring SPD pedal with all new lightweight and stylish body.
How to get out?
I like the look of these but how do you twist out of them? Although I am getting these for a trip I would plan on using them for my 6 mile commute t work, and I'm worried that these will be too hard t twist out of in emergencies.
To release cleat from pedal a outward twist motion with heal is required. To start with reduce spring tension on cleats until you are familiar with release motion.
