    No problem. I rode on more than 100 during last summer. I freeze both of my Insulated Water Bottles before the ride and wear jersey with mesh on the back.

    Since I have lived in Arlington, it has never been too hot or too cold to ride. I hate the heat (and that’s anything above 80 degrees). but I just make sure to drink more water — before, during, and after. If it’s nt hot, I might not drink at all on my commute, but I amke sure to drink when it’s hot I probabky ride a tad slower, too, but that could be due to more people out on the trails.

    Yup, but I learned that you can break a cyclocross tire at -56 degrees.

    I’m not sweet enough to melt.

    I have some work and familiarization to be done with my bike so the heat will give me a good opportunity to take it apart. and stay cool.

    You are all so tough! As I sit in traffic on the 14th St Bridge, I will wave at you jealously as you zip by, and turn up the a/c in your honor.

    I’d rather sit outside in the oven than be stuck in that mess. Wake me when the Maryland drivers figure out how to negotiate a middle lane closure.
