Lucky! It's in the upper 80s here. I went for a ride today, and came back having moved most of 48 oz of water (both bottles!) to my jersey (either sweat or dumping water on the sleeves and shoulders). And this in the course of a relatively shady 17-mile ride!
That's probably more normal for you, huh? Glad you're having cooler temps!!:)
Now I'm off to go do my 30 mile ride in 104. Yippee....
Enjoy it while it lasts ... supposed to be back into the 90s by the weekend, even hotter as the days go by. :(
It should be a little cooler tomorrow as well, so I'm hoping to fit in a ride. I mostly ride in the mornings, so the high temps for the weekend aren't a huge issue, except when it comes to grabbing parking at the trail. (I'm pretty sure I could work out a formula for the daytime high based on how early the cars show up in the lot...)Quote:

I'll try not to rub it in but it was really really a beautiful ride today :o
Whew...it got right back up there into REALLY HOT and humid! I'm down in Monroe, very little relief even by the lake here! Happpy riding, everyone!
I didn't think it was so bad today. Did 30 miles, although a good portion of it was under tree canopy, so maybe I got off easy.
I got a ride in around Kensington this morning but I was finished by 10:30. I would have rather started out an hour earlier but I didn't. It got pretty hot by the end. Mid afternoon it was torrid! Supposed to be hotter tomorrow and all week too. :eek::eek:
