The President of India Hon' Smt. Pratibha Patil will be in town today.
Will head to DY Patil Nigdi in the morning, Baramati by road in the afternoon, and back to Pune in the evening. Prepare yourself to be stuck in traffic/get harassed for Parking.
Have a nice day

They are not. Except one or two which are totally useless apart from the rains.Originally posted by xRohit View PostThanx a lot guys
just one more thing..to what extent are these jackets really waterproof??
Most people use an X(X)L size raincoat and wear it over the jacket.
A decent 2-piece Duckback raincoat costs Rs. 700 ish.Advice is a form of nostalgia.

The so called "water proof" linings are useless then?Originally posted by antz.bin View PostThey are not. Except one or two which are totally useless apart from the rains.

I recently bought a DGS Nero jacket hoping that it would give decent projection from the water during the monsoon rides as well.
And are they any ideas to save your shoes from getting water into them? or do we just have to learn to live with that? Many times the shoes start slipping over foot pegs, causing big problems. Hoping experienced rain riders can throw some light on this.The more you know, the more you know how less you know.

for the shoe part you can use some industrial safety shoes during the rain... they have anti slip grips along with a steel toe and if you the ones which are till the shin you will get waterproofing as well....Originally posted by kaushik60 View PostThe so called "water proof" linings are useless then?

Lets hope the jacket does what you bought it for. If not, Rs.700 is not a *very big* financial hit. And as it is, you would need rain-pants anyways if you are planning on doing any medium/long distances in the rain. The Jacket won't save your undies from getting wet.Originally posted by kaushik60 View PostThe so called "water proof" linings are useless then?
