Where are you located? I am in southern NV so I can definitely relate to this comment.

Under gixxerjasen's avatar it says Location: DFW; I'd go out on a limb and say he is in Dallas/Fort Worth Texas.

Yep, enjoying our "Mild" summer so far. Also enjoying the amount of rain we've had, I didn't turn on the sprinklers for the lawn till just the other day.

Of course, now I'm needing to force myself to find time to ride. Changed jobs and things have been hectic so no riding.

99 F for some boiler tuning Friday, maybe 112+ in the room.

102 F for the planned ride Sat.

Aint no dry heat either.

Rode it to work again...gonna be another hot ride home. Broke the 40k mile mark on my way in this morning.

Nothing.
Sitting parked I'm my sisters garage after a 4311.2 km
5 day ride from home to here.

Nothing, Walked right past it, picked up my scuba equipment, my four used underwater scooters, batteries, and drove to Lake Jokassee to test out the scooters and do a cold a-- water dive. Gotta test the rebuilt scooters so I can sell 2 of them to finance my trip to the Keys for Florida Lobster Opening Season. Hope I can still get into my 7mm dive suit, water is COLD in that lake at 100 feet. LOL

Had a Road 5 installed. I wore out the center of my rear tire this week. Had a PR4GT in the garage. But my Indy shop wanted the same for the 5 as it would have cost to to order one online,and saved me a trip to drop my tire off.

I rode it. It's been a crazy month, I don't think I've ridden any bike in the past month. Several weeks at least. So, I got up this morning before it got hot. Well, Texas hot. People in Ohio would cry because it was 82F when I headed out, but that's nice for us this time of year. But I did my morning loop, hit the handful of turns available, then picked up breakfast burritos from my usual place and brought them home for son and I to enjoy. Felt good to ride.

BkerChuck and i road around wellsboro, the rain didnt stop us. About 250 miles today. Yes, its fricken hot.

Rode to my brothers house in temps between 93 and 97. About 20 miles from his house the weather went weirdo and the wind kicked way up but the temp went way down.

Rain was threatening but never materialized. After the front rolled through, it was 82 and wonderful.

I let it sit and rest after getting back home yesterday.

Washed the blood n guts off of my road warrior

Just got home from a weekend in Wellsboro, PA scouting it as a possible EOM location. Temps today pushed 100 and it was a brutal ride home. Big thanks to Spinninprop for going along up on Friday and riding Saturday with me. He was smart and left out a little earlier than we did this morning to beat the heat. I'll work on getting a ride report about it done later for now I'm just chilling in the AC. Bike turned over 125k on my die home and still runs like a champ.

Washed it

Yesterday I rode it 450km...got caught in 3 torrential downpours, was relieved to find out that my Klim gear was as waterproof as advertised..so today I washed and waxed my bike.

Rode it to work!

Pulled the back tire. Getting a new RS3 today. 6,000 miles on the old one and it's treadless on the center.

It was a strange misspelling. But, truth be told, I've had some brutally hot die homes myself.
