Rode to Woodside and back, having started WAY too late for a hot day.
Then decided to see if I could get close to Max HR. Somewhere over 187. So much for 220 - age!
Probably - no DEFINITELY a mistake. The rest of the ride, every time the road turned uphill at all, I tried to decide whether I wanted to faint or throw up first. Half a gallon of ice water, and 1/2 hour in front of a fan later, and I was back to normal.
