Any suggestions, ideas, far out thought >s as to where or how to get some large rain pants? I have the same problem. I found local motorcycle shops have large rain gear (which I bought) but it's made of PVC and on the average non-overweight person that will create lots of sweat. (On me it's almost better the get weat in the rain.) I cut the elastic in the waist and arms and that helps a very little. I have a short commute (1.5 miles) that I've been trying to do DRY and in all weather. I called all the mail order places I could find and the best I could do was get a pointer to an issue of bicycle from last year that had an article on large clothing (I'm still trying to find it) Jim Rankin Bellcore Raritan River Center, Piscataway, N.J. rankin@kepler.cc.bellcore.com
