This evening's commute ride left me the most drenched yet. Rain was heavy enough that my quick-dry attire wasn't quick-drying, lol. I suspect if the temps were closer to 90 F like it was this summer, I'd be telling a different story, but at around low 70s F the heat from my body wasn't enough.

Next time I suspect it's going to rain like this, I'll probably wear the winter helmet instead, as it comes with a visor. I don't mind being soaking wet when it's 70 F but if it's down to the 40s I'm going to ride in my waterproof Vasque hiking boots instead, with the water resistant pants on top.
