Over time, water seems to penetrate these too if you are out for hours. The best thing that I have found is a use for recycling a small plastic grocery bag. Wad it up inside the Brooks cover for storage, use the integrated velcro strap to hold the cover and bag up inside the nose of the saddle. Spread the plastic bag over the saddle for protection and slip the Brooks cover over the top to hold everything in place.
