Me too. I have been caught out a couple of time in very rainy conditions. The temps drop suddenly and you go from overheated to chilled suddenly. Rain cape is great for that. You can even get off the bike and it forms something like a tent. It is marginally less sweaty than a rain jacket since you have more ventilation. Also, while riding with a rain cape, your gloves, shoes and legs don't get super wet....
