    What are the predicted temps and how much rain? IME, if it's going to be over 65-70 degrees, I will sweat my @ss off in any kind of rain gear. If it's just showers/drizzle, I'll take a windproof vest to keep my core a little warmer, lightweight wool socks for my toes, and just get wet. Having extra dry gloves and socks can be really nice if it's a longer ride.

    If it's going to be cooler or a deluge, I wear my homemade rain shorts. Cheap Performance rain pants that I cut to bermuda short length and hemmed. They keep my butt dry, but let my legs breathe.

    I don't ride in the rain enough to own a really nice rain jacket (like a Showers Pass). I usually use a Performance vinyl cheapy or a Cannondale convertible rain jacket that I got on closeout. But, again, it's gotta be raining hard or chilly before I'll wear that stuff to ride.

    Have fun on Saturday, and thanks for supporting the ADA
