I amt rying to find a new jacket/pants for this winter. Im in Texas so extreme cold isnt a problem, but we do get some chilly days with sleet and a lot of rain days. Im trying to find a water-proof or water-resistent jacket and/or pants that is warm enough for colder running, but cool enough to keep me dry on warmer, yet windy or rainy days. An added bonus would be something i can ride and run in.

MEC (Mountain equipment co-op) (www.mec.ca) makes a great cycling jacket, the MEC SuperMicroft Cycling Jacket. Wonderfully water-proof. Has the little 'back-flap'to cover your back for cycling but is great for running as well. And can be easily packed up into itself so that you can carry it around your waist if you get too hot.
