Fellow Riders,
I never thought I'd say it but I haven't been riding because of the heat. It's been so painful. 103+ heat index. I went for a ride in this heat and when I got home I was near heat exhaustion.
Everyone, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Even with cool mesh gear my body core temp was too hot. With the heat index, car exhaust, stop lights, the heat from the engine, and the heat bouncing off the hot road, it's like being in a microwave.
If you sweat a lot like me, water is a must. Hopefully you can drink enought to counter the loss.
Drink (water) often and early.
It's almost 6:30pm and it's still above scorching. No riding today.
