32degrees!!

I've never found it too hot to cycle. The breeze you create has a cooling effect and provided you drink enough it's no problem. After all, if professional riders can slog up four mountain passes in 35 degree heat a 50 mile stroll in 32 or 33 degrees is kid's stuff.

The sooner the better, clear the air a bit............

This morning I said to my wife, " I wonder when someone will say we need a storm to clear the air" !!!

Too hot for me yesterday. I have cycled in 35+C and been fine, while I was moving. But, in that sort of temperature, stopping even for a few seconds without shade and a cool drink to hand is too uncomfortable for me.

Rode home from work after a night shift Tuesday morning , vest and running shorts on . Dripping wet at 7,30 , had a can in the garden before bed !

Fine for me but I spent 5 hours in a confined space at 90-100 degrees with poor if working air cooling? so the commute in was not a problem.

I sympathise! I spent the morning in the cool f the house and the afternoon in the cool of an air conditioned car. Both of these were fine, spoilt by a night in a too warm bedroom.

Riding isn't the problem. It's when you stop....

We stopped for a shandy on the way home half way through our 32 miler. It was fine until we walked into the pub out of the breeze

I've been outside early this morning doing jobs, then had to go into Manchester to see Occy Health - only in with the doc 10 minutes, but it was way too hot, sweat dripping off me.

Tonight can I be bothered to do Pilates in a cricket hut, in this heat, or get some cold beers ?? Choices ?

There's nothing fast about Pilates. You'll be glad you went.
