Hairdresser embarrassment

I went to get my hair cut today. I had a half-price voucher for a very swanky hairdressers, so I hopped on my bike and went to my appointment. Just before I got there it sunddenly started chucking it down with rain. I locked my bike up in the downpour and took off my front wheel to chain it with the back. I turned up at the super-duper-swanky hairdressers sodden, with brown mud spots up my back and black hands. The funky peroxide blonde who had the task of untangling all my knots could barely conceal her disgust.

I wanted to have a big flashing sign that said "Im not always this gross, I can actually scrub up ok - its just that I cycled here."

It got me thinking that I want to make a hugely stylish cycling rain coat, thats breathable and flattering. None of this day-glo yellow nonsense. I want a coat I can put on and stride into a cool hairdressers unashamed!
The photoshoot for it will be held in a salon.
Watch this space...
