Milk Was A Bad Choice


Just went for a 15 min ride to best buy so I could buy the "Planet Earth" BluRay, and its ungodly hot! It's not even summer yet! I felt like my bike was crying the whole way. I tend to look down on those guys around here (tucson) that ride around in flip flops, shorts and t-shirts (sometimes helmets, sometimes not), but now I understand why they do it! You cook!! I need to get a super light mesh or textile jacket, this is just ridiculous! I foresee my bike going into Hibernation this summer

No Megusta :-(

I agree.     :-\


Dude...I don't want to hear it...I just drove to Phx (no AC in the car) and it's even hotter here. I've got my cycling race on Saturday and it's supposed to be 94 degrees!!!

I agree - we've officially skipped spring and gone strait to hell...ie summer.

In the last hour it went from 50 F to 64 F...at 2:44 in the morning , WTF !

I think we are due to have severe weather in the next 12 hours, .....oh NO ... winds 50 mph preceding Thunderstorms :o.that sucks the big green weenie !

Severe Storms starting around 3 pm. make the beast with two backs !

Have an 80 foot tree 10 yards from my bedroom already leaning about 20 degrees away from the direction the Storms are coming.

Good bye cruel world !

Have fun with that!!   :-X

50 mph winds shut down the water bridge in Seattle and can do a bit of damage to trees/treelimbs and roofs.

The day of our 72 mile bicycle race, it became absolute torture being out in the 97 degree temps and climbing the hills of the route. I was so glad when I crossed the finish line. I didn't realize how hot it really was until I got off my bike and felt the sun beating down on me. I think I heard that we set record highs for at least 2 days this past weekend. The hardest part about it all is keeping hydrated properly when it's so dry and so hot at the same time. I know I was drinking a lot - I went through 6 bottles of water by the time I reached the finish, but I still ended up with a massive dehydration headache...

all you guys complaining of the heat can eat shit!  [cheeky]  I've been on exactly one ride so far this year. I would be happy as hell to be sweating under a mesh jacket right now.
