So, does this mean that I can't use the BB30 bike for a rainy day ride or a gravel century? Seems like that's what I'm reading here.

For perspective, I have over 10K on a BB that get soaking wet, exposed to tons of gravel and dust, plus snow and ice in the winter. So, I know that other BB can take this kind of abuse. But base on this experience, I don't believe the BB30 can hold up this this kind of punishment.
