Or instead of buying all kinds of fancy equipment, you can make your own
"changing room."

Get some fleece fabric from the fabric store (length depends on your
height).

You're going to sew the sides together (or use those 80 million extra safety
pins from every race you've ever attended) and make what would essentially
be a 3/4 length sleeping bag. The bottom would be open, sides put together
but leave 2 arm holes, and at the top leave a head hole. You put this on
and change inside of it, bringing your arms inside. It has to be baggy
enough but you can totally change in there.

I can't take credit for this idea, but I first borrowed a "changing room" to
get out of my wetsuit and into normal clothes after surfing. I imagine that
if it works for a wetsuit, it will work for spandex. And it immediately
warms you up when you're in cold wet clothes.

Happy riding,

Pam

So I have gotten tired of changing clothes in the back of my car while I try to do the one foot dance of staying clean/ dry as I put on my fresh clothes after my CX races. I have noticed a few people seem to have some sort of portable changing tent which eliminates this problem.

For those that have one of these items or at least know about them: Where can I get one? What brand would you recommend? How much?

Please reply off list.

Thanks.
Dave
