I have a one-piece overall-like rainsuit I´m carrying in my fork bag. I am not happy with it. By the time you stop, unroll it and try to put it on over your wet clothes you`re so wet already you can go as well without that damn thing. I bought a motorcycle jacket wich is really waterproof and am considering buying a pair of waterproof trousers for cyclists. One big problem on the Savage (and other bikes) is the front fender, which i just too small to keep of water. When raining, my feet become wet first therefore. There are cheap overboots available however, some sort of shoue-shaped plastic bags. I´ve seen other bikers just covering their boots with plastic bags too.
