Yikes. We went from a pretty mild, but dry summer 4 weeks ago with high in the 80's and 10-20% humidity, to 2 weeks of highs in the 90's with 80% humidity, to this week. Highs in the 100's and 20-60% humidity. It's enough to make me think about a white seat cover!
Seriously though, riding through the cold days at 16 degrees didn't discourage me from riding, but too much of this kind of heat might. Last night, the ride down the to the greenway for my skate was about the most miserable ride I've ever had. Traffic was a mess, and sitting in stop and go traffic in this heat , made for an unpleasant ride. Then putting gear back on after the workout, while all sweaty really didn't appeal, but after a couple of miles of breeze, the body cooled, and with the sun setting the blazing heat was muted to dull heat (still 88 at 11pm), and balance was restored.
So, yeah, I'm still riding, but with the high today, again over 100, and tomorrow expected to be even higher, it's like Robin Williams said in Good Morning Vietnam, "Doing a little bit of Crotch Pot Cookin'".
