    I did a ride the other day- it was hot, humid and for about the second time ever in my biking life in Texas, there was no wind. I about fell off my bike I am so used to leaning into it in one direction or another, plus I missed the ventilation benefits of it.

    Did I mention it was hot?

    did you do the Katy Flatland 100? the wind was a doozy that day- it's those texas plains don't you know.

    No. I have no desire to ride centuries in my very hilly area (my girly bits just don't care to be smooshed that long), let alone in the flatlands . Actually, the most miserable ride I did was Old Howard Century, in a pretty flat part of Alabama (around Selma). Hated it--made worse by the fact that my group dropped my *** around mile 25
    Anyway, when we rode in H-town we were just visting my family and running around my old stomping grounds with our bikes in tow. Amazing how much that area has changed. I miss the Emu farms!
