That said, I'm curious; how does rain affect bikes? My husband is convinced a light sprinkle causes them to rust into a solid blob.
I have studied this exact question for well over 100,000 miles in the PNW which you may recognize as a rainy environment. My experience is that rain causes bikes to get wet. It doesn't hurt them.
BTW, 45°F and rainy is quite comfortable if you have right gear
