Any reasonably priced wicking outer shells? I don't care about owning a name brand 'cycling' shell, just a wind breaker which wicks away sweat.

Thanks,
I like an untreated anorak or a nylon shell of some type; they're cheap but perhaps getting a bit harder to find because not very high tech. It makes a great outer shell for days when rain is not a problem.
