I'm ready for a new jacket for my long distance rides that cover leaving Florida in 90/90 degree/humidity and going to places that range from 25 degrees to 110 degrees on a trip. In the past I had Motoport Ultra II that I did the CDR and the Labrador loop on 13 years ago and have been riding since with Olympia gear, currently a mesh jacket for summer and the AST for rest of year. The problem I find with any of the jackets that have liners inside is that the shell gets soaked and very heavy. I typically layer with heated liner for the cold but want something that works all season, especially on trips. I was contemplating a KLIM Latitude or a Darien but really feel that my comfort will suffer significantly in the hot humid riding I must do to escape Florida and most of east coast in the summer. The Olympia Moto X 2 is a consideration because the shell has good venting with the mesh panels and the rain liner can be put on the outside eliminating a soaked shell. When looking at all the new stuff it's almost overwhelming so that's why I'm looking for feedback!
Thanks,
Ken
