All summer and, until recently, it has been very warm with most of my rides in the 90's. Tonight it was 65 and I crushed my old PR on this 11 mile loop that I typically ride. And I rode yesterday too, so I'm not attributing it to just being "more rested" than usual.
That's perfectly normal. Same thing happens to me. Probably most people. Lotsa hot days this year. 65 to75 is pretty good for me. I took photos of my bike thermometer at over 100 a few times
times.
