[ST] Rain gear poll



I'm planning on embarking on the longest ride I've
done thus far and had a question for those of you
who've done some distance.

Do you prefer leather touring suit + rain suit or
gortex, waterproof touring suit?  How waterproof are
these gortex touring suits anyway?

I currently have leathers that I've done a fair amount
of shorter stuff on (e.g. 1,500mi on a three day
weekend).  However, I'm planning on heading from San
Francisco to Alaska in June.  After Alaska, I was
thinking of heading east on the Alcan to the Canadian
Rockies, down the Rockies into the States and then
hitting National Parks as I make my way back to SF in
the Auguest timeframe.  Any general (or specific)
thoughts or comments from those of you who've done all
or part of this?

Leaving SF around 6/3 if anyone interested in making
all or part of the trip together.

Yeah... it's great being unemployed.  ;-)

Dave
