Seeing that my fellow PNW riders have not weighed in on the subject, but we have two seasons here, warm wet and cold wet, if you want to do any kind of serious riding expect that you will be doing it in the rain from time to time..
Oh now, be fair! There's about two weeks in August where it hardly rains at all.
I don't mind rain unless it's sheeting and visibility is poor. Cold isn't that bad either; it's unpleasant for the first few minutes but then improves once I'm warmed up.
Cold and rain together can be Hell, but then afterward I feel like a warrior so there's some compensation for it.
