My race bike does not (never) see rain, dirt, sand, salt, etc. Not because it's not capable of, but because I baby it and I specifically bought a gravel bike for spring and rainy days. I am sure a Ferrari can be driven in rain or even during a cold harsh winter, but people choose not to do it and it's OK.
Let us know if you end up buying that stretching bike cover and how it holds. I know high speed wind can be a PITA with covers...
The OP asked this question 3 years ago. I posted my comment to someone else who renewed the dead thread. Its odd, but it seems like many dont realize a bike can get wet and not be ruined.
