As the trip gets closer my thoughts are turning to which kit to wear, I've been out to day in my mesh jacket and trousers. With temperatures up to 26 C it was a godsend. However if it turns to rain it's a pain to stop and put either the waterproof liners in or overjacket and trousers. Decisions, decisions
I've just been doing the same thinking. So far I'm edging towards my mesh jacket and carrying the oversized black waterproof thingy someone gave me to put on top if it pours down. Though any small showers shouldn't be a bother with the otherwise nice weather. If I stick with this plan I will probably also switch armour from normal jacket to this, as the stock in the mesh one don't feel as good as my orange stuff.
Of course we've had all weathers over the last few trips so who knows!
Trousers are easy though as I only have one pair
.
Anyway yes, if under the mesh jacket it's just a base layer, then there's not much left to get soaked. If it properly turns then I imagine we'll pull over and do it properly. Which reminds me I should add "mid layer" to my packing list!
