Went out for an easy 13 miles ride at lunch time today. Air temps probably 96 with over-the-road temps somewhat higher. I can ride in the flats with hydration, but there is no way I would do any sort of a climb; high temps, senior citizen status, a few extra lbs. Thank goodness we only have two of these short hot spells a year. Come Tuesday the temps will start to drop and it will be more than a month before we sniff 90 degrees, 70's more the norm.

There is a 51 mile club ride on Sunday along the coast and I'm sorely tempted to drive over there to escape these high temps. I'll have to get a day pass, however
