Singletrack Unscripted – Talking about hoods on riding jackets

Should a mountain biking waterproof jacket have a hood? We think so!

Benji wrote a review about a waterproof jacket and outrage ensued because he spoke of hoods in a positive light. So Hannah and Benji sat down to chat in defence of hoods. Hoods are great, they stop the rain dribbling down your neck, and get you home safe and dry. Probably never before in internet history has anyone got so worked up about hoods as Hannah and Benji. Hear their impassioned arguments for having a hood on you waterproof jacket. Then feel free to head to the comments and tell them again that they’re wrong.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
