Meanwhile, in Philadelphia the heat index is nearly 90 and it’s not even 6:15.

Forecast is looking rainy most of the week; if it holds and falls in the morning, no podium for me.

Going to be a low mileage week for me, looks like rain all day Wednesday and Thursday and We have the girls this weekend.
Took today off for some reason, wish I hadn’t.

Just looked at my weather app, and in Phoenix at 4:30 in the morning it’s 91 degrees. OUCH!

Probably not a hint of sun to be found.

This mornings heat was sickening. On my ride I found my daughter one of those classic red cars she can be pushed in. It’s in perfect condition, also found her a mini trampoline.
Oh and I completed my goal of 500 miles for the month. Over all success. Now back to work.

There’s a pro, can’t remember who, has posted several pics riding with a parrot on his shoulder.
edit: googled it and it was Michele Scarponi.

My taint chafed just reading that.
A light spin might have helped this morning, but I'm good with having taken the day off, too. The legs are more sore than I thought they'd be - riding solo the vast majority of the year, I've been targeting threshold, but yesterday involved some good ol' town sign sprints, a couple of them a little longer than ideal. I did set a new peak output mark for the year, though.

Aaaah refreshingly cool images for us northern hemisphere folks just when we need it most. Kudos.

Today’s ride was 1594kJ. Should be able to top 6MJ before the weekend. Of course, I have no context for what that means.
