Frustrated...

It is interesting how the human body can adapt - I would never deliberately ride in the rain, and here the Pacific NW members ride in it all the time. I understand that is the only way you can ride, so I would probably adjust if I were there

This week we are back in the 70's, and even 80 on Friday and Saturday when we are having an awesome event called the Brown County Breakdown - a few hundred of our closest mountain bike friends, special campground, bike demos, lots of beautiful single-track, bluegrass music and free beer in the evenings It is an all-weekend event, though the actual ride is on Sunday. Can't wait for those 80 degree temps, and not a rain drop in sight (yet).

I would never deliberately ride in the rain, either. I had my fill of it on my tour in August and it was not pretty. I have increased my tolerance for heat and cold riding, though. When I first started riding, if it was over 80-85 and humid, I headed to the gym. I never rode below 50 or so, either.
