Well, I'm a glutton for punishment it seems. I decided to do another roast and toast ride in 82% humidity. :p I left out in the morning for an easy chick ride and rode 22.6 miles in 91 F weather. We stopped at a nice little cafe and had a little breakfast. It was so pleasant to be in a cute little diner where it was just us and the waitresses. I asked if other cyclists had stopped by and she said we were the first. :) After breakfast we headed back and enjoyed a good ride home. After dropping my friend off I headed to the house and unloaded the car and showered before heading out to check on hubby and his friends. They had decided it would be fun to do a 64 mile ride. ;) It was noon and hadn't heard from them and I figured I better head out with the sag wagon in case they needed help. I found them at a little cafe and they were really starting to feel the heat. The temps had risen and with the heat index it was 98 F. They were just 3/4 of the way through their ride and were starting to rethink their goals. ;) They headed out and tried to finish the ride, but sitting in the car with air conditioning seemed much more appealing to them. So I picked them up and drove them to their cars. Hubby is sacked out for the afternoon and I suspect the other two are just as lifeless.
So, for the TE'ers who enjoy hot and sticky rides, how was your ride today? :)
