I waited for the worst of it to pass and then rode home in the lingering light rain. It cooled things off quite nicely and gave me a bit of a tailwind.
Quite warm and muggy this morning: 73F and 93% humidity. I actually hope for the afternoon showers to happen these days to keep the forecast high of 93F in check.
past couple days have been quite muggy. [MENTION=366933]mgw4jc[/MENTION] cool picture and glad you had a place to hide the worst of it out.
I have not been on here in a while but I have still be commuting.
Tuesday for July 4th I rode with a friend 63 miles with 4393 ft of elevation gain. I rode up a mountain and saw 15% grade on my GPS. It was tough. My legs are tired but I have been still riding. I have been trying to dodge the thunderstorms this summer as well. it has been more challenging since I now get off earlier which seems to be when they hit. I have been pretty lucky so far though... we shall see.
enjoy the ride folks
