I did my last long ride on Saturday, climbing to the to top of Mt. Weather (The peak is only about 1900 feet, but hey, it's the best I've got in this area. It's still got several sections in double digits, and one part that hits 20%).... Anyway - it was already hot and sunny when I started out at 8AM, and I was glad when it started to cloud over...but just after I got to the peak and turned around, we got hit with a BIG thunderstorm, with lots of wind, and rain so heavy, I couldn't see. The one saving grace of being on Mt. Weather, is that the Homeland Security site has a small overpass over the main road near the entrance...so I was able to hide under that while I wrung out my helmet liner, gloves, socks and jersey. I didn't do the shorts for obvious reasons.....

So, if it rains, at least I'm used to it by now.
