Apparently I didn't read the question very well. When I left on my ride today, it was 35 degrees and dry. I was hoping to get in maybe 40 possibly 50 miles. I got 12.5 miles out and the wind started blowing. Temp dropped to about 32 degrees. So I figure 25 miles in this is good enough. I turn around. Bam! Little frozen pellets of water start beating on my face at 20mph. Then I realized it was 35 and dry or 55 and rain. Nothing in ther about 32 and freezing precip. This fat boy stuck it out for another 6 miles then called for a rescue. My joints are sore. Love Colorado in the Springtime.
