Default Enjoying some good riding weather here

Can't complain about the weather lately here in Wisco from a riding standpoint. You southern & coastal guys are probably going to laugh, but I can't remember the last time I rode to work for 10 days IN A ROW. Constant 80's during the day and 60's at night. Hasn't even sprinkled rain in about 2 weeks. Just fantastic for riding.
Anybody else that normally doesn't get good weather gettin' some?

After the month long monsoon we had it May, it hasn't rained since then. But now we're in the oven with 100°+ temperatures most of the month and we still have August to go. YEAH HEAT WAVE!

Please package up some of your weather and send it down here. A cool front came through last night, and now its only 95 with high humidity, instead of 98 and high humidity. Almost rode to work, but stepped outside and changed my mind real fast.

Man, West Central Florida has really been nasty for about 3 weeks! Rain, rain, and more rain. I don't think we have missed a day in 3 weeks. Normally we have a 30 minute blast every afternoon and you can schedule your riding around it, but it has rained for 24 hours straight. Every few days I have to drain my pool cause it is too full. Today is my first day riding to work in about 2 weeks and I may be getting wet this afternoon.

Enjoy it while you can!!!

I must of lucked out. I just got back from a 5 day, 1700 mile trip that brought me through up state new york and Penn., into Cleveland and Canton Ohio, back through mid Penn, Jersey, back into Ny and finally home. Only rained on day 1 for about 1 hour. Just I pulled over to put on my rain gear, it stopped. The rest of the trip was nothing but sunshine and warm weather.

It's been raining or storming so much here that I haven't been able to ride to work more than 1 or 2 days a week. It was awesome today so I cut out early and took the long way home. 100 miles later I figured that I should start heading home!
