    Aug 2 ride-very warm

    Given our latest thread few days ago, about everyone's different definitions of hot temperatures and riding, I said very warm..but actually I found it hot.

    Close to 30 degrees C. but not as humid as few days ago.

    Did 77 kms.
    Towards end of ride dropped by an annual Japanese-Canadian festival in park. First time I've been even though I've lived in Vancouver since 2002. Gyozas from fundraising drum group, were good, not oily and just right for hot temp. Refrained from buying a Japanese dessert they were making there --tiny little pancakes enclosed with sweetened red bean paste. I already had Italian gelato few hrs. earlier in our ride out in the suburbs near the inlet.

    It was downright cool this morning (low 70's F). Rode for 4.5 hours (65 miles). Saw some places I hadn't seen before and a lot of places I have. Great day for riding. Took a picture of 2 new-ish baby quarter horses on the way home. Too cute!
