Your SUMMER arrival is more of an Estwing Rock Pick than a sledge hammer.
I'm close to the coast and when temps go from 70f, 40% to 85f, 80% in two days that is a hit.
Visiting relatives during the summer in the midwest was a chore. The basement was the only livable zone.
Gotta say it, can't help myself. No one can survive 95f wet bulb for long.
This morning rode from 4:45am till 7:00am, met with the guys till 8:00am, then rode off till 11:00am.
I know I need more interval work out of the saddle.
Really need to hook-up with some of the older SoCal guys.
