    My sheep skins are of the home cured variety a project for the kids when I was on the farm.
    I found that only in the heavest of rain did the skin get a bit wet where the water pooled after running down the jacket. Something to hold it in place would be good to stop it from dragging off with you when one needs to get of the bike.
    SD is right its the best sleeping mat for the tent warm as toast and comfortable.

    I have borrowed a mates sheepskin to try out. Put it on the bike with no attachements and it does appear to be pretty secure, not sliding around.

    The real test will come when I go for a ride with it on, just waiting for a sunny day.

    Bought myself a sheepskin for the Zrex on Saturday in readiness for this weekend's Grand Challenge. Should be good for a few hundred more km in the saddle!
