Ahhhh... it ain't bad once you get used to breathing under water. You should be around when it's 110 - 115.
You learn to ignore the heat just like you learn to ignore the cold.
Nice thing about the south is riding season is pretty much all year, give or take a month or 2.
Year round for the most part on the Western slope here in the GrandValley.....winter common day temps in the mid 40's low 50's....very little snow that's melted by mid-day.....although the first week of Dec. last yrs. annual ToyRun was 20degrees......braved that on the 'slab' on the Venturer 7mi. to the HD dealership where it starts from.......but the 500plus HD wanna-be's that usually ride it showed up in loaded down SUV's .

BTW, nobody in their right mind would even own a scoot, let alone ride one without AC down here.........I musta' made a wrong turn somewhere way back behind me .
"nobody in their right mind"
#1-It really isn't that bad, really. #2-I am a bit mental anyways.
Just spray yourself with the hose first so you don't have to worry about the sweat or more likely, the diaphoresis. btw: see you either Mon or Tues for lunch. I'm riding the 100 miles to get down your way.
We call that run it the 'diaphoresis 200'. Same run in Dec-Jan-Feb-Mar we call it, Riders Bliss.
Then its commonly referred to as 'Ecstasy 200' or 'the Euphoria'.
Columbus is warm, but not so bad once you get used to it. They have barbecue like nowhere else. Get some, and get some barbecue slaw to go with it. Only in Columbus! Columbus/Phenix City is a place apart. Other than the military complex, there aren't a lot of folks coming and going.
I am likely in for the Diaphoresis 200, but for me it's more likely a 300.

I used that long word rather than being blunt and saying: don't be surprised if we have bad BO when we get there.
Wearing riding gear with this oppressive heat & humidity, well you know what happens.
I just talked with Brent and he looks OK for Tuesday also. Marty, Brent & I will hook up near my house then we will 'go ride'.
btw: your greenbacks or cc won't work where we are going.
See you on Tues in Pine Mountain. We are looking forward to seeing you.
Hope that 90th celebration / party was a good time for all.

Realize it's south of the M/D line, but both have worked so far . Presume that's still 'noonish' at the barbeque eatery on main st.?
