Looks like we're going to make it through the entire month of August having had only one day where the high temp was below 90F (~32C). Looking forward to cooler weather in Sept!
Yesterday was noticeably cooler. It's funny how you adapt to the temperature changes. Even though it reached about 90 yesterday, it felt so much cooler. And it was -- about 10 degrees cooler than it has been lately. Even with the humidity it felt cooler, although I was sweatier when I got to work (and home) than normal.
What's your general commute route? I ride from North Raleigh down to where Capital Blvd intersects with the Beltline, mostly following the city bike route #11. It's a pretty good route except for a 1.5 mile stretch along Spring Forest Road, which is not too bad in the mornings but a little scary in the afternoons.
