Its forecast to be 31°c at 5pm for my 20 mile ride home from work, im not looking forward to it much. It was 29 yesterday and that was bad enough

Yep just finishing my coffee and it's off out. I'll be commuting later too but don't fancy doing intervals in the sweltering heat when I'm better off in the pub 😆

That was great! Siesta commences now & off out again at 19:30 🙂

I'm loving that I can cycle home from work at 06:00 in a t shirt & shorts 🙂

Stop moaning about the hot weather ffs.

I'll be outside doing manual labour all day then promptly doing a 25'er round Hebden shortly after.

I'll be lapping it up, got my Piz Buin at the ready.

Don't worry they'll go back to complaining about rain and why don't we get hot summers anymore like we once did in 77.

No complaining about the hot weather here, but no need to ride in the heat of the day when there's relaxing to be done 😆

Anyway, nice mtb session early, back for breakfast and then a gentle spin to work maximising my tan lines 8)

Nice breeze when I walked the dog on the Quantocks at 7 ish.
I was planning to ride at 9 ish but the wife booked the dog in for a haircut at 10 and then went out. I'm not going to get out til 12.
I'll have to pick a nice shady route.

Cycling home from work between 3 and 4 pm should be nice and toasty, just trying to work out the route. Brought a big water bottle and sun screen in preparation.
