for my b-day my mo-in-law gave me free rain of ordering a jacket 200 or less...
I used new enough and chose this... the Cortech GX air w/ leather
when I got it i was very pleased but it's on the big side so i need to send it back to at minimum get a smaller one...
then i started 2nd guessing my decision on that jacket...
I like that it's usable in both summer and winter (well FL winter) as well as rain... but i'm getting a rain suit so the rain issue isn't that big...
i'm thinking i might want something w/ a little more protection then the mesh but i'm unsure about the real tradeoff in heat come summer vs the protection...
right now the bike is my daily rider for 40 miles each way to work so my gear has to be able to do everything... but i do have a joe rocket phenoix mesh jacket so maybe just rock that for the summer and use the textile or leather for cooler/milder weather?
just looking for some input
thanks
