Too hot to ride
Here in portland it got to 105 yesterday and doe to get to 115 today. My wife got home around 2 and we wanted to ride the 6 miles to the river on our e tandem. most of the ride was on a bike path that tends to be cooler with all the vegetation. but getting there was bad my garmin hit a peak of 118 till we got on the path ands it got to 102 so much better. we went wading and cooled off and got our hair and jerseys wet. the ride home only peaked around 105. the river was 99 we were wobbly when we got there and wobbly when we got home. so we took showers and lives in our ac cooled bedroom. the front of our house peaked at 114 the shade 104. our house was 92 at 9pm. today is going to be worse. so we are doing all our rides this morning and will grab lunch at a Chinese place then live in the bedroom or visit our daughter they have some ac in their living room.
