I ride way to much in the rain. but most of the time its cold rain here in portland. I have a good showers pass Jacket that I think I will replace with a really good goretex jacket as it gets dirty just looking at it and it tends to get damp and to dry out fully for the evening ride home. I did find felt lined waterproof pants to wear when the rain is not super heavy and they keep my legs warm and I can work in them. waterproof shoes I change out of. but Just bought a good light weight goretex jacket thats easy to carry for the warmer rain rides. the water proof pants are too warm really. got a set of chrome water resistant pants that get too hot at 70 but for some reason they did not water resist the crotch so all the water that runs off the coat goes right there.
