Today’s ride:
Rode to the horse farms with Dick Davidson. Had breakfast at Panera as usual. Temps in the low 90s and at one point where we stopped for a rest the bike computer hit 106 degrees. However it was in direct sunlight and on hot pavement. Even with the temps as hot as they were there were a lot of riders out. Bobby from the UPS/Discovery channel 1999 team passed me twice, ran into Chuck and Jim at the Sylvan Lake Trail Head and Sue was heading out as we were coming back.
