Today's ride was rich with many threads and vignettes of stories. The first most important was the heat. Bill and I started out at 7 am in the morning to ride before the heat turned us back. Pretty easy to set goals of new distances in the nicely hydrated state of the air-conditioned house. Quite another to sizzle and swelter all the way up the road. As soon as I turned into the Sun after Newmann's, my ear alerted me to the fact I hadn't gotten sunscreen on all the necessary tender pink parts.
As I stood at the shed, several riders zoomed by asking for water at the shed. No water at the shed. Bring your bottles, and extras filled with ice chilled water.
