It has been super hot in Tucson, and I do not do well when the temps are over 100, so I didn't ride all last week. Saturday, my DH and skipped our group's planned 50 mile ride and went 32 miles out by Saguaro National Park. We ran into them and they had decided to cut it short anyway.

Sunday we rode Mt. Lemmon. My husband, who is a much stronger rider than I am, is training for a big hill climb time trial next month and rode for an hour about 10.5 mph. I think I averaged 6.5 mph. He came down and met me, and rode back up hill with me to about milepost 9. During the climb, I counted 60 people who rode past me and I only passed two people.
