well you hot girls from the southern hemisphere, we're going bonkers here in the PNW from the extreme, un called for and unreasonable COLD!

but i don't want to be as hot as you are either.
take a cheap old tube sock, fill it with ice and put it around your neck!

saved some lives on our cascade 1200 ride last summer when it was 106 degrees, sorry, i don't know the conversion.

I think 106' is about 38-39'

PHEW!!!
I don't think I would ride in that... not even if I could melt myself onto the bike!

Last year during our State Championship ITT's (40K) the temperature was in the 90's and may have even hit 102 f (38.8 c) while I was out on the course!!
I took the neutral water at the turn around, but I dumped most of it over my head and back rather than drinking it!!
It only got hotter as the men went out during the next hour. One guy even collapsed just after he finished and had to have an ambulance called. It's truely brutal to ride when its that hot.

ughhhhhhhhhhh

i rode in yesterday, trying not to be deterred by the weather, but it was still 35.8 when i left at 6.15pm. the ride home sucked

i had my camelbak and was drinking all the way home, but i still had a splitting headache when i got home. not a happy little vegemite

i dont think i'm built for riding in the heat. we were going to have a social ride round the lake after work this fri, but i've called it off cos it's going to be 37 degrees, and the temp doesnt really drop til about 9pm.

waaaaaah.... bring back 25 degrees.... i want to ride my bike

[crazycanuck]

Don't melt out there this weekend!!!

It's 32c at 1130pm!!!
