The Heat and the Wind

Watch out, another heat wave is hitting Boulder. Holy moly...it's a hot one too. You know when it's over 100 degrees and your about a mile closer to the sun than most of the world, it's gonna be hot and you better be wearing sunscreen.

Well my 3+ hour ride this afternoon was pretty brutal. I was wearing 50 spf sunscreen - still got burnt, had 2 huge frozen water bottles - which were pretty much boiling in less than 25 minutes and gone in less than 2 hours, leaving me waterless coming home, not cool; lastly, what better than to ride in 20+mph swirling winds the entire time. For those of you who know how I feel about the wind...let's just say, it wasn't the most pleasant of rides :)
