Ten signs it might be too hot to ride your bike..

Ten ways to tell that it might be too hot to ride your bike:

1. The bunnies aren’t out in THP…and the two you do see look like they’re panting.
2. You find yourself racing to the top of the hill because there’s a little island of shade at the top of it.
3. You consider, and not just for a moment, sitting down on the toilets in the park – they just might be cool.
4. When you stop and are suddenly aware of how much you’ve been sweating because it begins to drip down your arms and legs like you’re standing in the rain!
5. When your husband dowses you with water from his water bottle, you don’t threaten him with eternal abstinence…you ask him to do it again!
6. And then you scold him for wasting his water and make him fill his water bottle up again at the next drinking fountain.
7. You cheer when there’s a crosswind, your true nemesis in more temperate times.
8. You don’t worry about your legs “getting cold” when you stop for more than 5 minutes.
9. The ice and water you started the ride with are soup warm when you get to the 20-mile mark.
10. You spend the rest of the day thinking about the things you ought to be accomplishing and accomplishing none of them…oh, wait…I do that after cold weather rides too!
