Default Amazing weather this week

2 days in a row, got to ride in to work with glorious weather. High of about 76, with clear skies. Mornings in the mid-60s. There was a traffic accident along my normal route, so I had to deviate and go to my secondary route in to work. Added about 15 minutes to a glorious ride. I'm definitely lucky to be down here.

Florida has miserably hot weather in the summer. 99 degrees and 99% humidity. So, for all those who can't ride now because it's so cold...please remember that July/August sucks down here too.

I only hate it when it rains here though I still ride in it. I don't think July and August are miserably hot, I happen to love hot weather. But yes the weather has finally been great riding weather. Can't wait for Daytona on Friday.

You must be inland. I lived on the gulf coast in the Tampa Bay area and it was wonderful. Usually a breeze and the water proximity cooled the heat and warmed the cold. I will be back in 10 years.
Your weather still beats that of many. You just don't have as many nice cruising roads as some do up north.
