Super hot day. 97° but felt even worse. We didn't get on the bike until 3pm, for a ride to dinner....107 miles away. Was 87° by the time we got home... nice and cool. Lol

I'm sure there's some unfortunate soul that was somehow allergic to their own sweat or some crazy thing.
My oldest daughter is allergic to the cold,.. It's called Cold Urticaria... she breaks out in welts and it could even kill her in she isn't careful.
She lives in Houston now and I can't say I blame her.
Just looked up her allergy and found this...
Risk factors
Cold weather/Snow: Exposure to cold or cool air for more than a few minutes can trigger a reaction.
Sweat: A reaction may even occur on a warm day when there is sweat on the skin. If there is a breeze it will rapidly cool the skin and create hives.
Just got done cut'n the grass, so I think that's EXACTLY what I'm gonna do.
Me too! (Ride that is, cut the grass Saturday).
