120 predicted here today
Took a 40 this AM and felt as if I was in the world's largest hair drier.
For the Euro/Aussie/everybody else out there...that's approaching 50C.

110 here today. There's a huge high pressure ridge camped over the Valley, and it's not going away for at least five days, so I decided that I needed to suck it up and get on the bike. I rode at 6:30 and, because of the truly craptacular wind, it felt like I was trapped a convection oven. That said, I agree that it's a heckuva lot better than riding when it's humid.

Yikes, the high 80s in the Asheville area is the new hot for me, and if that is too bad I just climb up Mt Mitchell where it drops to the mid 60s! Not missing Ohio Valley humidity at all.

It was mid- to high 80s in the East Bay today. People were complaining. It felt positively balmy to me.

Riding in really hot weather is not that hard. You need to ride smart. Nothing more. Just go out and go at 80% of your normal effort. Also don't whine along the way. Rock on!
30 miles on the Blacksheep tomorrow. Expected high of 105 in the canyon. Love it!

Send some of that trash to us in the Northeast. Haven't had this much rain since Noah built a canoe, and not too warm either.
