I bailed as well.

My fiance got behind a commuter on Tryon during some of the heavier rain. She said he was taking the lane but nearly impossible to see and almost getting clipped by those impatient with the traffic. She offered him a ride since she had the car with the rack on it only to receive a rude reply of "I'm not riding in any CAR." I could understand him being stressed out by the conditions but she's an occasional commuter as well was upset by his use of tone with an honestly concerned fellow cyclist.
