Reminds me of the time I ran into a rainstorm, wisely pulled over and gave it
15-20 minutes to wash the oils etc. off and had a really pleasant ride... until I
over took the leading edge of the rainstorm and found some really fresh oil patches. Nice lesson learned. I do like riding in the rain, just with a bunch of extra caution. And you are so right, a big difference riding in a warm rain than a very cold one.
