Good Buy? or Goodbye..........?
I just completed my first sportive, otherwise I would not have went out in the rain. So enroute to the event I detoured to Halfords and bought myself a pair of overshoes. They looked the part, altura make. I fitted in with everyone else on the day, BUT! my feet still got wet and cold. Was my purchase a waste of money or did I only get a wee bit wet as apposed to soaked. Thinking about it.....my waterproof jacket acted the same. I'm thinking of buying a can of spray to reproof it. The overshoes were marked down from £20 to £14.39 and then you get more discount for click and collect online rather than just walk in off the street.. I paid just over £11.
