keeping a leather saddle dry

I love my Brooks Team Pro-S. I tried several modern saddles before
buying the Brooks, and hated them all. One women's model wasn't wide
enough for my sit bones and the other was like a rock under a little
surface give.

But now I'm planning to do a triathlon, and ride my bike in wet shorts.
So I need to either change saddles or cover my Brooks. I also want to
do a century ride or two this spring, so I am reluctant to change to a
less comfortable saddle. Wallingford Bicycles carries a saddle cover,
but they say it is only marginally wide enough for the Tream Pro-S,
which sounds not good enough. I could just use a shower cap or a
plastic bag--it is a sprint triathlon so only an 11 mile bicycle ride.

Anyone had good experience with any of these solutions?

Pam
