Hey.. Just want to see what weather conditions everyone rides in. I live in Tucson, Arizona, so I am forced to ride in 110 heat.. Also, how many miles do you average on your rides?
Most everyone rides before 11:00am at the latest, except for the crazy lady who rides up and down Sabino Canyon Road.

I live in the north east of england. At the moment, its really warm (well warm for the UK!!) and really really humid.
Normally we'll get about 7/8 days like that and then thunderstorms or heavy rain which helps to drop the humidity.
