Default Summer is here ..

Summer is here the temp was 97 and the heat index is 105.. I rode about 90 miles on I 40 and it is like standing in front of a pizza oven .. Went down by the river and it was much cooler for sure.

Beats winter any day, I can take the heat far better than the snow and cold

I prefer the warmer weather for riding too. But any day I can ride is a good day.
