Hello, my name is Joe and I'm a wuss

[ArmyJoe]

I have daycare duty Monday through Thursday, so Friday is the only day I can ride the Spyder 15 miles to work.

This morning it was 85 degrees with high humidity at 8 AM. I took the truck and cranked up the AC. pps:

 

[SpyderAnn01]

Joe shame on you I'm almost old enough to be your mother and I rode 150 miles Wednesday and at one point the thermometer on the Spyder read 107 and another 100 yesterday with temps around 95.

However, I will give you :2thumbs: for being man enough to admit that you are a wuss! :roflblack:

 

[Lamonster]

I understand Bro, you are in the Army as my Marine boys would say :joke:

Ouch!

 

[Lamonster]

Ouch!

He set himself up for that one

Don't get me started on that topic.:lecturef_smilie::roflblack:

 

[GI Jane]

Ouch is right! Good thing we're pulling out of Iraq. The highest temp when I was there was 154 degrees, or so we were told, our outside thermometer only went to 140! Now that's hot, but I sure would have rather ridden a Spyder than walk!

 

[ARtraveler]

We feel your pain. But the willingness to confess before others should help with your issue. :roflblack::roflblack:

 

[ArmyJoe]

In an effort to redeem myself here, it did make it up to 100 by 5 PM. :yikes:

On the way home, a thunderstorm rolled through and dropped the temps down to 75. I'm heading out for a ride. :thumbup:

 

[Weave2u]

Uh oh...sounds like this is becoming one of those 12 step programs in here...

Heat with no humidity

I know what you are going through minus the humidity. Living in Nevada I see temp of 100 plus in the summer almost everyday. I had met my wife for dinner and when I got back to the bike and turned it on it was showing a temp of 122 and only went down to 120 by the time I got home, approx. 15 miles. Its meant to be ridden so I ride it. Have fun.

:dontknow:

You know if you all would just stop looking at the thermometer the heat wouldn't bother you half as much,
It's all mind over matter , If you don't have a mind it doesn't matter.:2thumbs:

Except a 12-step program would have been supportive! :roflblack:

Lucky for you all that you don't live in Augusta Georgia! It's been in the 100's every day since early May with 90 to 100% humidity. It will stay that way until late September. The good news is that my RS stays between 4 and 5 bars all day long at that temperature. It's a great machine!:clap: I try to ride all year and my issues are with the cold! When it gets way down to 60 degrees I really suffer:gaah:

I was at Ft Gordon from June through November last year. I don't know what it is about Augusta, but it has heat like I've never seen it before. The weather today in Ohio was just like that.

Hey Bro, I hope you know I was just pulling your chain, I support all branches of our military and have the utmost respect for all of them. Thank you for your service. :thumbup:

 

[WackyDan]

You are no wuss sir.

I hit the road late yesterday on my trip north out of Charlotte.... about 11:30am late thanks to my wife.

Anyway...I wish I had air conditioning yesterday. The heat was brutal. Spyder was being the normal grumpy machine she is when it is hot and humid....
