I rode to work all 3 days so far this week. Tuesday morning, there was lightning in the west the entire ride in, but we only got a few sprinkles of rain at work and nothing at home. There was a stiff south wind to ride home against all 3 days, and I'm still on tired legs from the Hotter 'N Hell Hundred on Saturday. The older I get, the longer it seems to take to recover from that kind of effort.

I ended up with 790 miles in August, not bad considering how hot this month was, I'm thinking. The September 1st forecast for tomorrow afternoon? 104 degrees, so it's still going to be a hot ride home.
