It melted quickly enough for me to do a 600K a couple days later on dry roads, but all along my ride there was broken and damaged plant life. It'll grow back, I'm sure ... but the whole thing was a bit of a shock.
Now tomorrow, the temperature is supposed to reach 29C!!!! I know how to dress for 29F, but 29C is HOT!!! I don't know what to wear!! I'm guessing that my usual 2-3 layers on the bottom, and 5-6 layers on top is going to be a bit overkill.
At least you got to ride. I did read about it.
I get confused about what to wear when the temperature first changes a lot going in either direction. It was 91 F here today. I didn't check the weather this morning and was way over dressed.
When is bike forums going to get an automatic temperature converter program? When I type in degrees F. it comes out degrees C for you and the other way around.
How is your shoulder now?
