I put my oversized Chrome backpack in the bin on my trailer yesterday, but I wore it on my back all day today, just 'cause.

My motorcycle doesn't have air conditioning, but I get to wear a heavy black jacket when I ride. Got home, mowed the lawn.

Best be careful out their. I read earlier that carbon fiber cant tolerate heat and one guy is keeping his bike in the house.

Fairly brutal the past two days in New England. Still in the 90's and almost midnight. Showers are in the forcast for tommorow so the weekend will be back to seasonal temps.

We never had a winter season this year so the transition was not noticeable. However, the past month has been extremely hot and humid. The past week has had daily afternoon and evening thunderstorms that has cooled down the morning temps but the humidity is really bad. At times, it's almost like having gills.

When I left for my ride it was 85 yesterday and 90 when I got home an hour later. The air was like it had no oxygen in it for me it was realy hard to breathe.

It was still 90 after 9PM last night. Utah is weird. It stays cool in the morning, but once it warms up, stays warm.
