I'm the same way - don't like heading out in the rain. The forecasters had predicted rain this morning in Raleigh, but it was dry when I got up and nothing showing on the radar. So I rode and had a nice NE tailwind most of the way. That was a good thing because my legs are still recovering from riding 280 miles last week. I'm am nearing my 3rd anniversary since I started bike commuting and I'm trying to top 10,000 miles during that time, so I don't want to miss any rides if I can help it.
