same here mate. I did the 3C and was soaked to the bone at the end. First thing I did when I got home was order a Altura Strada Race Cape Waterproof Jacket. It fits in one of the back pockets in my cycling jersey with some room for a CO2 Pump so its not too big0

Did 3CC 200k and spent most of the day wet. I set off with a waterproof on but after 20 miles the rain stopped so I took it off and never bothered to put it back on. I had a helly hansen base layer with a short sleeve cycling shirt and even though I was wet my temperature was fine and I felt ok. I find wearing waterproofs you end up wet with sweat so as long as you are not cold I don't think its that important. Regarding your other post, my feet get wet with overshoes as the water runs off my legs into my shoes.0
