Stay away from mountain curves.

Plastic rain gear & tool kit: ALWAYS carry in duffel bag. Wear a good pair of boots, too. Oh, and have fun!

The worst part of riding in the rain is the loss of road friction. Well, and raindrops hitting your face at 65 MPH. But you have a full face helmet so that's not going to be a problem. (Don't forget gloves though.)

Oh, and when you buy raingear, get a jacket without a hood. I originally cheaped out and bought a hooded rainsuit. Since you can't put the hood up while wearing a helmet, it gets offended and channels rainwater by the pint down the back of your neck.

Dave H: the hoods on most bike raingear go UNDER the helmet. Sounds wierd... but it really works.
