Southern California - Oh ****, it's going to be 100F today!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Sorry about the screaming. It's just...heat and I don't mix. And when I dress to cool myself, other people and I don't mix. :twitchy:

Wish I could just stay home and soak in the pool, but no, I must pop my head out of my little hole in the ground to do a presentation on my research. Bleeeeech. :mad:

As long as i don't melt during the 2.5 miles back to Union station i should be fine. :D

I have a tough day as well... I'll be working from home today! :D

If it makes you feel better, on my ride home yesterday, I thought I would melt out. I'm just not used to the heat yet! :(

Hotter the better. It's still May. August ,now we're talking heat. Get out of your air conditioned womb more often.

I prefer it warm when going for bike rides. It means less stuff to wear. :D

With what 18%-20% RH, puleeese, it has to get to at least 105 before you get to complain. Come over the right coast and we'll fix ya up with some real heat+humidity. Sunday it was 95 with a dew point of 71, now that's a fun swim (ride).:)

love the warm/hot weather!!! I'll be getting a nice lunch ride in today too.

After months of "cold" socal weather, it takes time for your body to adjust to the warmth.

I am not a hot weather person.

The morning ride was nice, at least. It was still 60-ish when I left the house. It's the ride back I'm dreading.

@stonecrd: I grew up in Japan, where summers are unbearably humid. Like gross-sticky-ewww-humid. Then I went back to the Philippines for more humid summers. I actually would deal with humidity better than dry heat, as my body is more accustomed to it. I'll hate it, for sure, but I won't feel as miserable. Right now I feel like I have to guzzle several dozen bottles of water just to keep hydrated.

I am exactly the opposite. I spent 10 years in Livermore and loved riding in the 100+ with low humidity. Crank up the moisture and I just die. Anyway I don't think either of us have a lot to complain about when it comes to weather I end up with 200+ days riding each year. I grew up in Chicago so snow and cold is what I fear most.

Funny, I grew up in Japan too and I never got used to the humidity. If I had a choice I'd pick hot dry weather any day over high humidity.

I grew up in the East Coast and never got used to the cold or the humidity. 75 degrees is about my lower limit of cold. Hot and dry = perfect. Riverside suits me well.

was 97 on my lunch ride, wind sucked though.

I like the cold. But for me cold means low 70s.

i hope it cools down a bit for sunday....racing 3 times in the middle of the day is not going to be cool at all.
