Hey all,

I'm looking into getting the Sugoi Wallaroo 290 Speedster hoodie as a layer for colder wintery days.

Do any of you ladies out there have this? It's the merino wool version of the regular Speedster. I can't find it locally but am wondering:

1. Do you like it?
2. How warm is it?
3. Does the hood fit under your helmet or is it too bulky?

Eager to hear your thoughts!
