Have to change my high temperature after today. High for me was 108, but today it got up to 112 and we rode all day. So that settles that.

Highest is right at 100 degrees F with the apparent heat index at like 108. Lowest was to Bike Week in Daytona about three years ago, I think it was like right at 40 degrees F when we left that morning. Doing 65 mph up CR 415 was cold I'll tell you! The first and only time I wore my chaps. Riding home that evening it was like mid-50's. Still cool, but at least much more comfortable.
