With its ultra-packable design, the GORE WEAR Ambient Vest is there for us whether or not we need it. We long for the days when shoulder season turns into summer season, so when the weather turns chill, or a cold front blows in, we make sure to have the vest on hand. We're riding longer and further with the added confidence this vest gives us, knowing that even if we get a little cold far from home, the vest that lives in our bike bag can offer some warmth to get us back.
