I got a dry 30k in this morning, can't say the same about the 60k yesterday.

I didn't know what to do with myself after the ride this morning as I didn't have to wash the road grime off or lubricate the chain.

Man I did a couple of laps of the Cootha this morning.. it was hot.

Came home, mowed and I am a ball of sweat! It's 33.2 now but the apparent temp is nearly 38!

The heat.... oh my god, the heat. I've been sitting on the deck pouring water over my head to get some relief. BOM claims it'll be a touch cooler tomorrow and cooling down the rest of the week. I hope the weatherman is right for once!

yes the weather is horrendous, I'm trying to work out why I decided to have a roast dinner last night and am cooking lasagne and home made bread today. the heat must be affecting my judgement.

did ride Gap Creek this morning and despite consuming about 5 litres of fluids I still think I have lost weight.

At 5am on Cootha it was sort of cool..... but when I got home at 8am it was revolting. And then got worse.

Good idea getting there early. My group met at 6:30 at JC Slaughter and started then. I think I got home just before 9 and she was getting pretty warm. 3 water bottles on the ride plus about a litre when I got home. I think the bacon and eggs afterwards wasn't the best idea

Tues 22, what a contrast to Monday. I was hopeful of closing the new triangle this week but its back out on the horizon.

There was COLD RAIN - if only briefly - at 6 am this morning !!!

had to go back and get a thermal undershirt

[ValleyForge]

At 4:30am the weather radar was clear so we rolled out at 5am, was a bit of drizzle and then the cold rain.

It was almost like an English summer day!

Clean bike is clean no more, and the wet weather gear had stayed home....

Glad I didn't go out...got up at 4.45 checked the radar and went back to bed...getting further behind that red arrow now

[Comedian]

Got wet twice today.

Nice to have first light at 5.10am, get to use the ay ups again....Mornings are becoming a little crisper which is good too.
Bring on winter i say, have to be the best time of the year in Brisbane.

I never take them off the bike. Summer they are set to flashing, Winter (last week) set to constant at least for the start. But that's usually 4:40am for me.

Never seen a Christmas tree hit by a car: light up everyone.

more bad weather on the way apparently, rain and lots of it for tomorrow according to weather forecast.

Well the weather is already bad since about tuesday, just not yet wet as well

enjoying the rain on the ride, so much nicer than the humidity. mudguards make riding in the rain so much more pleasant.

Yaay well done.

I saw a dude riding in with no shirt on today and thought that was a good idea in this rain. Took me 1:10 on the bus - 40 minutes longer than the ride

[brades68]

left home this morning 6:15 for 45min ride, lather of sweat when i got home - humid in rocky

cheers

I rode to work this morning. Mudguards and fat tires made it a breeze. I wore a rain jacket and fast drying shorts.
