If I'd been thinking, I would have done as teigyr, and rearranged my schedule. It's too hot to think straight.Originally Posted by mimitabby

Yes, the things we do for cycling! You are prepared teigyr! I can't wait to hear all about it!
Speaking of heat . . . yesterday I did a 40 mile ride in the dang heat. I started at 9:00 AM (when I should have started at 7:00 AM) . . . then I ran into a friend. We rode to an espresso stand and chatted and sipped mochas for 40 minutes (while the temperature rose and rose). I finished my ride a little past noon with the temperature reading 93 degrees at my house. Needless to say I paid the price. I had a horrible headache the rest of the day. No matter how much water, poweraide, fluids I took in the headache persisted. Even tylenol and later ibuprofen did not help. Heat can be dangerous. Thank goodness it's cooler today. Be safe out there when the temperatures are high!

Hehehehe, I already have FMLA paperwork on the books, but darn it, they're expecting me, and another person already is taking the day off on annual leave--so I would feel quite guilty Originally Posted by teigyr

Nice guy
He was completely open to every question asked. We were in the fourth row and this was his largest signing yet. I think he was pretty amazed! He did ride earlier that day and was on the trail but I don't know when. There was a long wait for book signing but he handled it with grace and a sense of humor.
