It doesn't usually rain much on TCR, ie in Eastern / Southern Europe in August.
If it is raining most people either find shelter / hotel or keep riding until it stops.
Except the whole months worth of rain that dropped on top of me in 6hrs before Pluzine that time...
Sure, but you didn't try to bivvy out in it did you? I had same in Croatia and pitching a waterproof tent in that would have been a joke. Would have been soaked by time I got in.
