I have ridden in the rain so many times in the last 50 years. Can't say I really enjoy it. It's just part of being a touring riders life. On every 9 or 10 days tour there are generally 2 days of rain. Sometimes deluge type rain. Have never found gear that will really keep it out for an extended period of time, especially gloves. I would rather get caught in it, than take off in it, but of course most times you don't have a choice.
Slow down a bit, stay as vertical as you can, leave extra space for stopping, avoid paint stripes on the road, and tell yourself it's only water lol.
