You can certainly tell it's too d**n hot to ride by how much the new threads and posts have slowed down.

Kinda hard to think about ridin' in this heat!!

I hear ya Danster...heck, I even wussed out and caged it yesterday (but I did ride to PT at 0600 hrs! LOL) Getting ready to do the same thing today...ride early in the am, cage it the rest of the day. It's GOTTA get better soon, huh? :shrug:

Yesterday was tuff. The monkey about got me a couple times. Digging up a backwater valve , bushes, roots, about three feet deep, water line in the same ditch, all hand digging, 100 plus degrees, that sun is relentless.

Drunk a whole gallon of water, and three large Gator Aids and did not have to piss till 6 p.m.

But it is looking up, next week the weather outlook says from 95 all the way down to 91.

May have to start wearing a winter coat. :joke:

Dan, you dead on!! The heat is depressing and oppresive!! People are more irritable than ever!! It does not help that we are in water rationing mode out here and no relief in sight!!

It really does not help to wait until late in the evening to try and ride--Its 100 degrees at 9pm!!!

The good news is--Each day puts us 1 day closer to rain and cool weather!! :excited::thumbup:

It will be cooler at RIPFEST__OCT 1--Eastland, Texas--BE THERE!! BE THERE!! BE THERE!!!

Too hott!!!

Have you noticed that many of the roads that were smooth before now have surface variations, especially at bridge crossovers?? Are they going to smooth out whenever it cools down or are we going to have a lot of on going road reconstruction?

 

[CWW]

:agree: it will be 104 today in Yuma, AZ and the bike stays in the garage. Gives me some time to work on my HF trailer some more, wiring now 4:

I'm 50 miles west of Cowtown and the streak wasn't broken here. We've been at least 5 degrees hotter than D/FW all summer. We had a 10 day streak of over 110 'til yesterday. Highest so far- 116, twice.

Dan, you need to run for President on the "It's to damn hot to ride" ticket. You'd get my vote.

 

[Dan]

Really, it's too d**n hot for anything right now. August always s**ks here in Texas anyway but man, this year has been something else!!!

 

[machead]

Sad to think it really won't cool down here in Central Texas until maybe Thanksgiving.

Texas don't like to give up her heat easily.
