Recently had a Mt biking/hiking adventure in Western Mongolia and luckily for me, my mother shouted me an early birthday present and bought me the Rivulet! It was perfect for the occasion even tough it spent most of it's time rolled into my handle bar bag! We had one rainstorm during riding which was no match for my Rivulet and it was ideal for the chilly winds experienced in evenings at 2000m +. Small and light but super convenient with a good size phone pocket. Read the other reviews and bought a size up...recommend you do too!
I bought a size up so that I could fit a merino underneath. Jacket is great. As others have commented the side pocket is angled backwards but I kinda like it. Makes it easier to get to stuff. I wish that there was a back pocket for a water bottle. I love the orange colour.
Great jacket. Bought to replace a previous Ground Effect rain jacket. The silver inner lining had worn away. This coat is a very good fit, cuts the wind beautifully and keeps me dry. I am hoping this one will wear better and I certainly expect it will. Ground Effect products seem to be always improving its products.
I haven’t bike to work in this when it has been negative 5 outside, that will be next winter. It has been great when dealing with the terrible cold winds that tend to be in the South Island. Only negative or positive thing depending on how you would like to read it, is that the first day I wore it I noticed just about everyone in the bike shed had the same jacket and same colour, and I work for a large company. They are a very popular jackets.
I bought this jacket to wear over thick clothing for winter cycling in the snow and bad weather we sometimes get on long cycle tours. I usually wear a 12, and had to get a 14 instead. This size not just allowed thick clothing, it was also longer. I had a few compliments on the bright orange, and realised that I actually love the colour. I would love for it to be a tiny bit longer, as my upper body is long and tops and jackets tend to be to short. However this is a great jacket and now my husband wants one as well. Perfectly wind and rain proof. Even that fine never stopping misty rain that drench everything. The service was excellent, Erin was so patient and helpful, even after I first ordered the wrong size. Love your products.
