When I lived in Bakersfield California I rode in 112 degree heat and guess what? IT WAS FREAKIN HOT! So hot you could not even come close to pedaling at speeds you would normally pedal at. I rode in this heat for about 12 minutes then turned around and went home to the air conditioner and the ceiling fan blowing on me. But some people do better in heat then others-I'm not one of those people. If it goes over 100 I try to stay home in the day and ride at night when it's cooler.

But now I live in Fort Wayne Indiana-I don't think I'll be seeing to many days of over 100 degrees anymore!
