Although if DH wants to ride we have to go in the evenings, last night I watched the temp so we could go ride. The last time I checked at 7:30 pm it was still 98 degrees. I told DH forget it. We had ridden the day before at like 5 while it was still over 100. I wasn't doing that 2 days in a row. LOL
I hear ya lady!
I have been riding in the 100F degree heat though, to get ready for Hotter Than Hell this coming weekend! It has been great training!
What is really miserable is RUNNING in this stuff! I wait until 8:00 PM, but it's still 98 (like you said). So, I just have to go do it, and suffer for about 40 minutes.
