Bike Rain Poncho

I've been keeping my eye out for a rain jacket or poncho for myself for months but just can't pull the trigger on one. Today it was rainy and I knew the perfect thing- A garbage bag!

This is a big 30 gallon that our office uses in the kitchen. My co-worker decorated it and put it on  me and cut it.

Fits perfect!

Ready for action leaving the building. Bicycles have to use the freight elevators. It's more VIP.

I made it! I loved it.

It's a keeper. I also can leave it in my panniers forever and ever and not really worry about it getting stolen.

  5. That is pretty cute. I have a raincoat, but it's not too fashionable. I also think it leaks in heavier rain. Luckily though, I also have a folding bike, which means in heavier rain, I can just take my bike on the train with me, and I don't really have to deal with it. (It also means I don't have to use the freight elevator)
