Solo hot ride. Started about 11:30 and the forecast said 100 in my hometown but failed to mention hotter in San Dimas ha ha ha!
But got in a good 35 miler with 2200+ ft of gain. Up Wheeler, up San Dimas Cyn, up Lorraine to Sierra Madre then down to Bonita and back to Claremont.
My Strava says 111 degrees but I think it may be a little high as my Garmin and the Garmin site said 109 max and 101 average. Hot enough for me ha ha ha!
I didn't feel the heat too much though, other than climbing a little slower. I don't think I could have raced anybody up today. But made it. Then at 23 miles in, I looked at the temp again. Strange though, not dripping sweat like one would think. Must have been so hot that my sweat was evaporating. I only drip when I stop ha ha ha!
Felt good but the last 2 miles, I think I started feeling it. The little 2 final sections seemed to be a little harder than usual. But hey, I made it!
San Dimas Cyn, little white car heading down about an inch from the right. Looks kind of itty bitty!
