My Auto Zone Rewards card is from 2007, hard to think that the card is close to 20 years old now. Last time I used it, I used it to scrape glue off the side of a truck LOL!

I had a really good MEC cycling rain jacket that I've had for decades. I started riding to work for the first time in like 15 years recently, and I had it strapped on my bike in case I needed it. I didn't notice until I got home one day that it had fallen off at some point on the ride. I had a look on the current site, and there's nothing like it there any more. I'm gutted that I will never be able to replace it.

    If I could recommend - I've been very happy with my Proviz cycling jacket. It's a UK company, and the one I have has lasted 4 years so far.

    The feature I liked most with the MEC one was the pit zips. Good for the sub-tropics. I'm looking more for wind-proofness than water-proofness.

    I had a look at Proviz. They look pretty good. I'm not planning on any night riding but the hi-vis yellow one might work for me. Thanks.

    I wear mine for walking after dark too, or even in low light conditions. Really makes me feel a lot safer, and it's not so gaudy as the yellow. You wouldn't peg them as bike specific at a glance.

    And yeah they do include pit zips. Great feature.

    They don't pay me but they really should, hahah
