I'm with you Brad. It's friggin hot. I haven't ridden to work all this week. Can't stand sitting in traffic (friggin Scholls-Ferry RD in Beaverton) in 100+ degrees. Hopefully it breaks tonight and I can ride the rest of the week.

I didn't hear any complaints last weekend at Run 21. Nakedness everywhere enjoying the weather. But you are right, it is too hot to sit in traffic. 90 degress in the house last night at 11;00 P.M. We don't get enough hot weather for me to invest in A/C for the house.

Try that heat with 98% humidity,that's when it gets good. A cool vest won't even work because it won't evaporate.It is so humid right now a fish could survive out of water.

A lot of people up your way don't have air conditioning either. bummer when it gets hot like that. We're used to the heat here in Texas...The Land of swimming pools and big hats. hang in there...the heat wave will pass and before you know it FALL WILL BE HERE!
