I was going to start a thread like this, you beat me to it!
Yesterday, my wife did a here and there ride, where we decide where we are going once we get started. First was the diner for 'brunch', we started way later than we had planned. It got hot fast, and I had a problem with a tube. We decided to go to the local EMS, which meant we had to go up a mild hill. I usually don't shy away from hills, but I took one look at it, and just knew it would not be fun at all. I just couldn't get the power to as usual. After that, we went to one of our favorite places to cruise around, Duke Farms, But it too was as much fun, it felt like riding in an oven. Even the normal breeze from riding was hot, so we decided to just go home, and have a dip in the pool. The pavement on the way home was just radiating heat. I was glad to get home. After just 18 easy, stop and start miles, we where knackered.
